How to treat rectal prolapse?
Rectal prolapse mainly includes external rectal mucosal prolapse and internal rectal mucosal prolapse. External rectal mucosal prolapse primarily refers to the symptoms and types of clinical rectal prolapse. The most common and effective treatment for rectal prolapse or internal rectal mucosal prolapse is surgery. Simple medication can only relieve local relaxation or compressive symptoms, but it does not have a definitive therapeutic effect on the disease itself. The surgery mainly involves the removal and excision of the relaxed and prolapsed mucosa, thereby increasing the tightness of the intestinal mucosa and relieving the local mucosal pressure on the anus, which causes the patient's feelings of bloating and descent. After the surgery, patients need to rest in bed for a week and should avoid squatting and excessive abdominal straining in their future activities.
