Rectal Prolapse treatment in Celaya

Rectal prolapse occurs when part of the rectum, the final section of the large intestine, slides down and comes out through the anus. It can present partially or more noticeably, especially with straining.

Common symptoms: a sensation of a lump or tissue protruding through the anus, discomfort when having a bowel movement, difficulty controlling bowel movements and, at times, bleeding or mucus discharge.

When to see a doctor? An evaluation is advisable if you notice tissue coming out through the anus, there is persistent discomfort or changes in bowel control.

Which specialist treats it? The colorectal surgeon and the proctologist are the professionals focused on conditions of the rectum and anus, and the general surgeon can also take part in its evaluation. If you have symptoms like these, letting a specialist examine the area is the safest way to guide management.
