What is Rectal Prolapse?

• Rectal Prolapse is a condition in which the
  rectum ( i.e. the last few inches of the large
  intestine ) or a part of it, loses its normal
  attachments inside the body, and protrudes out
  through the anal opening. Although it is never an
  emergency problem, it does leave the patient
  uncomfortable and anxious, with a significant
  negative impact on the quality of life.

SYMPTOMS OF RECTAL PROLAPSE

• Pain/ discomfort in the region.
• Bleeding from the rectum
• Constipation - Seen in upto 30-50 of patients,
  constipation may result
• because of bunching up of the rectum, creating
  a blockage that worsens with
• straining.
• The most common symptom is something lump/
  swelling coming out of

  may happen only during a bowel

  may happen on coughing,
