Anal prolapse, or rectal prolapse, can be a distressing and often misunderstood condition. It occurs when the rectum—the final section of the large intestine—protrudes through the anus. This can range from a partial prolapse, where only part of the rectum is involved, to a full external prolapse that’s visible outside the body.
