Treating the Testicles with Hot and Cold Baths
Treatment through water is extremely beneficial in curing the painful swelling of the testicles
known as hydrocele. Cold hip baths twice daily in the morning and the evening, for 10 minutes
each time, are specially valuable. For a cold hip bath, an ordinary tub may be used. It should
be filled with cold water. The patient should sit in the tub, keeping the legs outside.
A hot Epsom-salts bath is also very useful in the treatment of hydrocele and should be taken
once or twice weekly, if possible.
