While surgery is often the most effective treatment for rectal prolapse, there are alternative therapies, including lifestyle changes, biofeedback, and potentially some Ayurvedic approaches, that may help alleviate symptoms or even avoid surgery in certain cases. It's important to discuss these options with your doctor to determine the most appropriate course of action for your specific situation.
