What happened to the anal protrusion?

Rectocele is a kind of constipation with outlet obstruction. Because rectocele is relatively loose and rectal pressure increases, sometimes it will lead to the formation of pouch shape towards vagina, so that stool can not be smoothly discharged, resulting in difficulty in defecation.

The cause of rectocele formation is mostly due to dysplasia or poor nutrition of the elderly, resulting in degeneration of fascia tissue, making rectocele fragile and loose. Long-term constipation, increased abdominal pressure, and stimulation of stool easily lead to loose rectocele protruding towards vagina. Defecography can be performed to clarify the severity of rectocele.

Generally divided into mild, moderate and severe, moderate and severe rectocele requires surgery.
