Rectal prolapse is a condition where the rectum drops from its normal position and protrudes through the anus, often appearing as a red, fleshy mass. It is commonly caused by weakened pelvic muscles, chronic straining, or constipation, especially in women over 50. Symptoms include a, painful,, bulging mass, constipation, and fecal incontinence. While initial treatment for children may be conservative, adults often require surgery (e.g., rectopexy) to fix the issue.
