The main symptom of rectal prolapse is a swelling that protrudes from the anus. In the early stages, the swelling is small and only protrudes during defecation, retracting on its own afterwards. As the condition progresses, the protrusion occurs more frequently and grows larger, requiring manual assistance to push it back into the anus after defecation. This is accompanied by a feeling of incomplete bowel evacuation and a feeling of heaviness. If not addressed promptly, the prolapsed intestine may become swollen, constricted, incarcerated, and even risk necrosis. As the prolapse worsens, it can cause varying degrees of anal incontinence, accompanied by the discharge of mucus, which leads to eczema and itching around the anal area.
