We visited the Jacksonville Zoo with our four children (ages 6-13) and had a very nice time. The zoo is small enough to enjoy in a partial day which we prefer as we'd rather not leave exhausted. We also took advantage of our reciprocal membership (from our home zoo) and received discounted admission.
A hydrocele is a collection of fluid surrounding the testicle. It is located within the outer layer of the testicle called the tunica vaginalis. Hydroceles can also develop due to inflammation or injury within the scrotum. These sometimes resolve over a few months but many remain and require medical attention.
Hydrocele testis. A hydrocele testis is an accumulation of clear fluid in the tunica vaginalis, the most internal of membranes containing a testicle. A primary hydrocele causes a painless enlargement in the scrotum on the affected side and is thought to be due to the defective absorption of fluid secreted between the two layers of the tunica vaginalis (investing membrane). A secondary hydrocele is secondary to either inflammation or a neoplasm in the testis.
