Though not a debilitating disease, rectal prolapse can throw life out of gear for a person by virtue of the fact that it entails the falling down of a part of the rectum from its normal position. Homeopathic Treatment can be effective in assuaging the discharge and discomfort resulting from rectal prolapse without the fear of side-effects. Homeopathic remedies for rectal prolapse go to the root of the problem and cure the underlying causes of this condition. 
Symptoms of Prolapse Rectum
A person suffering from this condition manifests a couple of symptoms, ranging from discomfort and pain in the rectal region; mucoid discharges from the anus and bleeding from the rectum to fecal incontinence and difficulty in passing stools.
Top Homeopathic Remedies for Rectal Prolapse
I feel the homeopathic system of medicine can work wonders in curing prolapsed rectum since it is natural and non-toxic compared to other treatments as its remedies are culled from Nature. Podophyllum, Ignatia, Aesculus, Hydrastis, are the top remedies.
1. Podophyllum: When Rectum Prolapse Occurs while Passing Stool
I find podophyllum to be one of the most frequently indicated remedies in cases of a prolapsed rectum. The rectum may get prolapsed either before or during the passing of stools. There may be a sore pain in the anus. Podophyllum may be prescribed in children with complaints of prolapse of the rectum. Proper inquiry generally reveals that there is a history of chronic constipation. All the symptoms are associated with a weakness in the abdomen and anus. There may be constant anxiety due to the pain in the anus. The prolapsed part of the rectum may remain protruded for a long time, particularly in children.
2. Ignatia: When Rectum Prolapse Occurs Even with Soft Stool
Ignatia is also a very good remedy for prolapsed rectum. Ignatia may be prescribed when the parts protrude with soft stools and remain intact with hard stools. The pain may be sharp and shooting in nature. The pain radiates upwards and may get worse after passing stools. The pain subsides considerably when the patient is in a sitting posture. There may be a tight, constrictive feeling around the opening of the anus. Ignatia may be given when there is a constant pressure as if some sharp instrument was protruding from the rectum into the anus. All complaints get aggravated in the mornings, after eating food, and on getting warmth. The patient feels better by changing the posture and when he is in a sitting posture.
3. Ruta Graveolens: Prolapse occurs After Straining or after Delivery
This remedy is very well indicated in cases of a prolapsed rectum. Ruta may be particularly prescribed in cases which occur due to complications after childbirth. The stools may be constipated and can be passed only with great straining and difficulty. Sitting is the worst position because it makes the pain get worse. The pain sensation is as if the rectum and anus are being pricked with sticks. Some part of the rectum comes down the anus each time when the stools are passed. Ruta may be given when there is protrusion of the rectum during an attempt to bend or stoop forward. Winters are the worst time for the patients as the pains become unbearable.
4. Aesculus: When Rectal Prolapse is Due to Chronic Piles
Aesculius hippo is a remedy known for its remarkable results on the anus and rectum. It may be prescribed in persons suffering from chronic piles leading to a prolapsed rectum. The sensation of pain is that of the rectum being filled with sticks. There may be intense burning pain in the anus which radiates up to the back. I feel Aesculus is also suitable for women who suffer from prolapsed rectum during the menopausal or post-menopausal period. There may be a sensation of swelling in the anus and passing stools is very painful and difficult. The most prominent feature that calls for a prescription of Aesculus is a constant backache which may incapacitate the person so much that he or she is unable to perform the daily chores.
5. Hydrastis: For Rectal Prolapse in Children
Hydrastis is a remedy especially effective in cases of the prolapsed rectum in children. The child may be constipated and cries while passing stools on account of pain. There may be much swelling in the anus and rectum with congestion. The complaints may be associated with fissures in the anus. This gives rise to much burning in the anus during the passing of stools. The pain lasts for a long time after passing stools.

LEVATOR ANI SYMPTOMS
SITTING IS UNCOMFORTABLE
BOWEL MOVEMENT PAIN OR RELIEF
Discomfort or relief after a bowel movement is common
CONSTANT OR INTERMITTENT PAIN
The rectal pain is typically a constant or intermittent vague, dull ache, or pressure sensation high in the rectum and/or in the anal sphincter as well.
PAIN OFTEN RELIEVED WITH LYING DOWN
Pain is often worse with sitting and better with standing or lying down although some patients symptoms are aggravated with standing
PRESSING INSIDE IS PAINFUL
When the doctor presses inside the sphincter or above, the muscles pressed on can be exquisitely painful
PAIN ON ONE SIDE OR ANOTHER
Pain typically occurs more on one side, or exclusively on one side
HOT BATHS USUALLY HELP
Temporary relief can occur in a hot bath
TESTS REVEAL NO DISEASE
No disease can be found with conventional medical testing and the doctor typically has little to offer other than pain medications which offer little
6% PREVALENCE
The general prevalence of levator ani syndrome is approximately 6%.
OFTEN OCCURS IN MIDDLE AGE
About half of those suffering from this condition are aged 30-60 years
MORE WOMEN THAN MEN
more common in women than in men
FEW SEE A DOCTOR
a small minority of patients with this condition see a doctor for this disorder
WORKDAYS LOST
A significant number of people with this kind of rectal pain miss work or school
DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY
Depression, anxiety, and a severe reduction in the quality of life is common.
NO CONVENTIONAL TREATMENTS RESOLVE THIS SYNDROME
There is no conventional medical treatment that reliably resolves this condition
TENDENCY TOWARD ANXIETY
Patients with levator ani syndrome appear to have a general tendency to anxiety
RESULTS FROM YEARS OF CHRONIC TENSION
As we discuss in our book and in the articles we have published, these painful muscles are the result of years of chronic tension of these muscles and at the point of pain, the patient cannot voluntarily relax these muscles
HIGH PRESSURES INSIDE INTERNAL ANAL SPHINCTER
When pressures inside the pelvis are measured with manometry, the pressures inside the internal anal sphincter are often elevated
SITTING, BOWEL MOVEMENTS, SEXUAL ACTIVITY, OR STRESS CAN AGGRAVATE
Pain may be aggravated by sitting, bowel movements, sexual activity and stress.

I have been surged of rectal prolapse about 3years ago ..but it was not successful. It has come back worstly than before..as of now I can’t not urinate or pass stool unless I took laxatives..please Dr sharma I need your help…from nigeria
Hello Dr. Sharma, I had a rectal prolapse several years ago and underwent a colonectomy. I’ve noticed that I can’t seem to “empty” even with the use of a water enema. I have cramping and back pain, but not really any pain in the anal area. I noticed the protrusion again a few days ago when I try to have a movement. I really don’t want to go through another surgery! I would appreciate any help.
Thank you, cheryl
