How hydrocele occurs?
Hydrocele refers to swelling in the scrotum (sac holding testicles) and is typically a part of fetal development. It is noncommunicating when the baby boy’s sac closes normally, but his sac fails to absorb the fluid inside. It can be a communicating hydrocele when the sac does not seal/close. Prematurely born babies are more prone to developing a hydrocele. In adults, teenagers, or older children, it can form due to an injury or because of an inflammatory infection of the scrotum.
