What Causes Burning Sensation In The Scrotum?

I have a hydrocele condition. I am 68 years old. I wake up some mornings with burning in my scrotum. What causes this and is it a dangerous condition. I find that I can get some relief by gently patting my scrotum. What are my options? I had a heart attack in 1996. I've had no problems since. No surgery just diet and medication.

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that you have a simultaneous hernia also, besides the hydrocele.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have an MRI,for excluding any concomitant hernia.
If there is hernia, you may need to have a surgery, to clear the hernia, and simultaneous reduction of hydrocele.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
