Can rectal prolapse get better without surgery or do I always need an operation What treatments or home remedies actually work to fix it Would doing Kegel exercises help pull it back up or is that not effective for this issue
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
In adults, rectal prolapse typically requires surgical intervention, as it often doesn't resolve on its own or with conservative treatments. While some lifestyle changes and exercises like Kegels can help manage symptoms and strengthen pelvic floor muscles, they are not a definitive cure for a prolapse.

View allI'm really worried because I've been taking dulcoflex tablets every night, and now it feels like I'm reliant on them. It all started back when I was 18 and dealing with constipation issues. I was also over 100 kg, but then I managed to get down to 75 and have kept it there. I just don't want this to turn into a lifelong dependency. How do I break this habit, and what should I be doing instead for the constipation? Any advice would be really appreciated.
Addiction to any drugchemical can cause the body to develop a physiological dependancy on it. This means that normal bowel movements will become impaired and this can lead to dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and dystonia of intestinal musculature. Seek professional help if you are unable to stop the habit on your own.

I'm a bit worried after my recent full body checkup. The results showed I have Hepatomegaly with Grade 2 fatty liver. My doctor gave me some medicines to help treat it. But when I looked online, I found posts saying it's best to stop taking medicines since they can harm the liver. I'm confused about whether to trust the medication or follow the advice I saw online. Any guidance would be really appreciated.
If you are a drinker, stop any and all alcohol consumption immediately. Grade 2 fatty liver is reversible through commonly used medication and lifestyle changes. There are liver protective drugs like UDCA which should be started under the supervision of a specialist.
