Amid adults, rectal prolapse is more common in those older than age 50 and more common in females than in males. Around 80 to 90 percent of grownups with rectal prolapse are females. Rectal prolapse is rare in kids and kids with this condition are normally younger than age 4.


What are the potential complications of rectal prolapse?


The 2 main potential complications are:


· The rectal prolapse can’t be strapped back into the rectum. This can cause the blood supply to the prolapse to be cut off. This is named strangulation. It is excruciating and requires emergency treatment.

· The rectal prolapse ensues again. This is common. Following your doctor’s guidance on lifestyle alterations can help avert it happening again. This means precluding constipation.


Lifestyle modifications might consist of eating a high-fiber diet and drinking adequate water.

Symptoms can consist of feeling a protuberance after coughing, sneezing or lifting. Treatment frequently starts with steps to avert constipation and straining. If your rectal prolapse is severe and restricts your quality of life, your doctor might recommend rectal prolapse treatment without surgery i.e. via herbal medicines.
