Had a Hydrocele since I was in my late teens, I'm now 39. It made one testicle about 4 or 5 times the size of the other. Eventually, decided to have it dealt with privately. I was in and out on the same day, knocked out for the op and it took about 30-45 minutes. I was given Co-codomal for pain which I took for three days after op. Little bit of bleeding on the day of the op, but apart from that no other complications. Was able to move around fairly freely 3 days after the op and sleeping was easier as I like to sleep on my side and that was too sore initially.
It's now 8 days later and I'm back in work with only a little bit of discomfort now and again, won't start sports for another week or two and I'm told the swelling will take about 2-3 months to go down fully. Looks like I will have a noticeable scar from the incision as it was a pretty big cut.
All in all, fairly minor surgery, but be prepared to spend a week at home and the first few days completely off your feet. Obviously will depend on size of Hydrocele and a complication free surgery.
