Aspiration needs one day and can be done without getting admitted.Also it can be done on Sunday.

Surgery will need 4-5 days and also admission.

Do check with your company as well, as most software companies have health insurance for their employees.

Dont feel embarrassed, hydrocele is nothing to be embarrassed about.Just in case , if you think that way.

Aspiration should cost you around 2-3000 , but surgery is difficult to predict as depends on setup , but you can consider close to 20000.

Hope this helps.Please ask if there are doubts.Regards.
