I'm really worried because there's minimal free fluid in my pelvis, and I've been having severe stomach pain. I was admitted to a nearby hospital, and the MD observed me, but my condition hasn't improved. Can anyone suggest what the underlying issue might be, or if there's a specific direction we should explore for better treatment?

Hydrocele can be uncomfortable. Since you're not experiencing pain, you can try the following non-surgical methods to reduce the size:

Elevation: Elevate your scrotum while sitting or lying down to reduce swelling.

Supportive underwear: Wear supportive, loose-fitting underwear to reduce pressure.

Exercise: Regular exercise, like cycling or swimming, can help improve circulation and reduce swelling.

Dietary changes: Increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to improve overall health.

If these methods don't help, consider consulting a urologist for surgical options, such as hydrocelectomy.
