This document summarizes several common male genital conditions: Hydrocele is a fluid buildup around the testicle that often appears as a painless swelling in newborn boys. Varicocele is an enlargement of the veins in the scrotum and affects about one in six males ages 15-25. Cryptorchidism is an undescended testicle, which can cause infertility if not corrected surgically. Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract over the head of the penis, sometimes causing soreness and swelling.

14. Hydrocele
 A hydrocele is produced by fluid in the sac which normally surrounds the
testicle. It often presents as painless swelling in the scrotum (the pouch
that holds the testicle). Hydroceles are often found in newborn boys,
especially premature infants.

16. Vericocele
 Varicocele, an enlargement of the veins within the scrotum, is not unlike
the varicose veins that appear in the legs. It occurs in about one in six
males, but unlike varicose veins in the legs, it is more common in younger
males, ages 15–25.

17. Cryptorchidism
 It is the most common congenital defect of the male genitalia. It may
occur bilaterally and unilaterally and may be the cause of infertility if
corrective surgery is not done. 3. Definition CRYPTORCHIDISM or
UNDDESENDED TESTES refers a failure of testicular decent into the
scrotum

18. Phimosis
 Phimosis describes a condition in which the foreskin is too tight to be
pulled back over the head or glans of the penis. If symptoms occur, they
can include soreness and swelling.
