Rectal prolapse befalls when the rectum (the last segment of the large intestine) tumbles from its normal position within the pelvic region. (The word prolapse means a tumbling down or slithering of a body portion from its standard position.) The term “rectal prolapse” can refer to three categories of prolapse:
- The whole rectum prolongs out of the anus
- Only a section of the rectal lining is pushed via the anus
- The rectum begins to fall away but does not extend out the of the anus (internal prolapse)
People who struggle with the symptoms of prolapse rectum usually opt for surgical treatment. However, this route is not safe and kit carries a lot of risks.
