Immediately rush to the nearest hospital onduty doctor after checking thoroughly advised for an USG. USG report showing the impression :- "SOL in lower part of left inguinal canal, seems to be due to encysted hydrocele of cord"

Hydrocele at this age mostly resolves on its own. Keep a watch for any pain, redness, increased swelling and consult a surgeon if those signs are present.
