To determine if you have rectal prolapse, you can assess it through clinical symptoms and examination results. If diagnosed with rectal prolapse, it is important to actively cooperate with your doctor for treatment. Rectal prolapse is usually a condition where the mucosal layer of the rectal wall or the entire intestinal wall shifts up and down. If you have rectal prolapse, you may experience symptoms such as rectal protrusion, mucus discharge in stool, fecal incontinence, constipation, bleeding, rectal fullness, incomplete evacuation, eczema around the anus, and more. If you experience any of these symptoms, it is likely that you have rectal prolapse. At this point, you can visit a reputable hospital for anoscopy to determine if there are any abnormalities in the rectum and colon, and to confirm the presence of rectal prolapse based on the examination results. If diagnosed with rectal prolapse, manual reduction can be used for relief. If necessary, surgical treatments such as rectal suspension and fixation or anal sphincter constriction can be performed to improve the condition. After surgery, it is important to pay attention to the care of the anal area by cleaning it with warm water to prevent the growth of bacteria and the occurrence of discomfort. In daily life, maintain good bowel habits and avoid prolonged bowel movements to prevent adverse effects on your health.
