I just gave birth vaginally, and now I'm experiencing rectal prolapse. What should I do about rectal prolapse after vaginal delivery?
For rectal prolapse occurring after vaginal delivery, a systematic examination at the hospital is recommended. Seek evaluation from a specialist to assess the severity of the prolapse. If only part of the rectal mucosa is protruding, treatment with sclerosing agents may be effective. However, if there is complete rectal prolapse, surgical intervention is necessary. After treatment, it's important to avoid factors that trigger rectal prolapse. In cases of constipation, timely measures should be taken to soften the stool to prevent worsening constipation.
