What is the best way to treat scrotal effusion?

Testicular effusion is also called hydrocele. It is a common male disease in clinical practice. The disease occurs in men of all ages. There are two causes: primary and secondary. For example, some men have orchitis or epididymitis, etc. These inflammations will directly lead to effusion. In addition, sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis can also easily lead to scrotal effusion, and it may even be caused by testicular tumors. Therefore, there are many causes of scrotal effusion, and the subsequent situation may be very serious. Therefore, it is best to go to the hospital for examination in time. It is very important to make a clear diagnosis of the condition. Only in this way can the correct treatment method be found.

First, treatment of hydrotesticular effusion in newborn infants

Nowadays, many newborn babies have testicular effusion, but for newborns, most of them will disappear by themselves before the age of two, so there is no need to rush for treatment. If the testicular effusion has not disappeared after the age of two, then it is necessary to drain the fluid. Generally, after multiple drains, it will heal and will not recur. However, this method is only suitable for children. It has no effect on adults. It will recur in a short time after draining the fluid.

Second, treatment of hydrotesticular effusion in adults

Treatment of hydrotestis in adults can be mainly through injection therapy and surgical treatment. Injection therapy refers to injecting drugs such as sodium morrhuate into the patient's tunica vaginalis after the fluid is drawn, so as to eliminate inflammation and adhesion of the tunica vaginalis, but this method has great side effects and can easily cause multilocular hydrotestis, so it is not recommended. The second is surgical treatment, which mainly relies on ligation of the hernia neck at the internal ring to prevent ascites from flowing down, which is also somewhat dangerous.

Third, diet conditioning

Fennel porridge: 10-15g fennel, 50-100g polished rice. First, boil the fennel with water, take the juice and remove the residue, add polished rice and cook into porridge for consumption. It has the function of promoting qi and relieving pain, and is suitable for water hernia caused by cold and dampness.

Citrus aurantium egg soup: Citrus aurantium 60g, 2 eggs. First, fry the Citrus aurantium, remove the residue and take the juice, then put the whole egg into the juice and cook it, peel the egg skin, add appropriate amount of salt, eat the egg and drink the soup, once a day. It has the function of promoting qi and dispersing stagnation, and is suitable for water defects caused by liver depression and qi stagnation.

Note: Patients with hydrocele should reduce their activities during treatment and actively treat the primary disease, such as filariasis, schistosomiasis, orchitis, epididymitis, etc. They should eat semi-liquid food as much as possible, eat easily digestible food, and reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. However, the nutrition must be comprehensive, and high-protein, high-vitamin, low-fat and low-salt diet, spicy and stimulating, fatty and greasy, grilled, pickled and other foods should be avoided as much as possible. Eating should be regular and quantitative, and nutrition should be reasonable.
