Non-Surgical Treatment of Prolapse Rectum

Posted by Rohan Gupta on June 18th, 2021

Rectal prolapse is a medical ailment that occurs when the rectum pushes through the anus. The anus is the orifice through which excrement escapes your body, while the rectum is the final section of your large intestine.

Rectal prolapse affects roughly 2.5 out of every 100,000 persons. This illness affects six times more women over the age of 50 than it does males. When the condition is indeed a significant case of haemorrhoids, it's often assumed.

Rectal prolapse is a condition that may vary from minor to severe. In many circumstances, mild instances may be handled without surgery. Surgery may be required in severe situations.

Rectal prolapse symptoms usually appear gradually. The sensation of a protrusion in your anus is the first sign you'll notice. You can feel as though you're sitting on a ball.

You may be able to see a reddish-colored protrusion showing through or extending out of your anus in a mirror. A little portion of the rectum may protrude during a bowel movement, but it will either withdraw on its own or be easily put back into place.

Walking, sitting, and exercising may all cause portion of your rectum to push into your anus. It may be manually restored to its rightful spot at first.

If the rectal prolapse progresses, there may be bleeding from the rectum's inner lining. You may have problems managing liquid or solid bowel movement and gas from your rectum if you have partial or total prolapse.

Constipation affects up to half of patients with rectal prolapse, while others may have both constipation and incontinence.
