You are right! Also, I fixed my typo - it is a hyDrocele not hyCrocele. Duh! Here is an explanation:
A hydrocele (HI-droe-seel) is a type of swelling in the scrotum, the pouch of skin that holds the testicles. This swelling happens when fluid collects in the thin sac that surrounds a testicle, often causing that testicle to elongate and hang down longer than normal.
Hydrocele is common in newborns and usually disappears without treatment within the first year. Older men can develop hydroceles, sometimes due to inflammation or injury. Hydroceles are usually painless, but may become large and inconvenient.
