A hydromel is a condition in which a sac filled with fluid appears around testicles. It is a result of swelling of the scrotum, the skin beneath the penis. Males of any age can develop the hydromel but if it occurs in infants, it can heal itself without treatment within 12 months. The hydromel does not normally cause pain but if the symptoms are severe, you should see your doctor.

The symptoms of the hydromel are scrotal swelling and in some cases ache. If the swelling is large and painful, it may be the cause of cancer or hernia. In case of infants, the hydromel can develop in the womb, and in case of adult men, it can be a result of an injury or infection of the scrotum. The other risk factors may include sexually transmitted diseases and radiation therapy.

The hydromel is not considered to be a dangerous and serious disorder and generally it does not have any influence on fertility. In rare cases, the hydromel can be related to some other problem with testicles, such as cancer or infection which in this case may cause difficulties with production of sperm, and inguinal hernia when a part of intestine becomes trapped in the abdominal wall.

In order to diagnose the condition the doctor will perform a physical examination first and then he/she will do the urine and blood tests to check if there is an infection.

The treatment for the hydromel may include drainage, needle aspiration or surgery. These procedures are performed if the condition is severe and the hydromel has not disappeared on its own. In some cases, the hydromel can appear again.

Thereare also natural treatments and home remedies which can be helpful in curing the hydromel. The patient should be put on a diet which includes nothing else but fresh fruits. The diet should last for 8 days and the patient is supposed to have 3 meals a day. The recommended fruit are seasonal juicy fruits, such as melon, oranges, lemons, apples, peaches, pears, grapes and grapefruit. Also, the patient should drink plenty of water or lemonade without sugar. Bananas should be excluded from the diet. Later on a cup of milk and vegetables should be added in the diet. Take a cup of milk with breakfast and steamed or raw vegetables, such as cabbage, with lunch and dinner. Avoid alcohol, cigarettes, coffee, strong sweetened tea, sauces and pickles.
