Ayurvedic Treatment for Rectal Prolapse

Ayurvedic Treatment for Rectal Prolapse works by correcting the Vata which is deranged and directed in the upward direction. Rectal prolapse is a very common condition nowadays, especially in elderly people. Prolapse is a condition where a body part falls from its normal position. Rectal prolapse is when the rectum drops down or slides out of the anus.

There are three types of prolapse:

External prolapse: The entire rectum sticks out of the anus.

Mucosal prolapse: Part of the rectal lining pokes out of the anus.

Internal prolapse: Drop started but not yet sticking out of the anus.

It causes severe pain and discomfort & the patient will not be able to sit properly in chronic cases. Pain, swelling, wounds and other complications may be present, too. Most cases of rectal prolapse respond well to treatment but surgery is needed for a permanent cure.

Signs and symptoms of Rectal Prolapse

  • Feeling a bulge outside the anus
  • A red mass outside the anal opening
  • Pain in the anus or rectum
  • Bleeding from the rectum
  • Leaking blood, faeces, or mucus from the anus

Causes of Rectal Prolapse

  • Long-term history of diarrhoea or constipation
  • Habit of straining
  • Old age, with weakened muscles and ligaments in the rectal area
  • Previous injury to the hip or anus
  • Nerve damage that affects the muscles’ tonicity & elasticity, caused by conditions like pregnancy, vaginal childbirth complications, anal sphincter paralysis, or injury to the spine.
  • Neurological problems, such as spinal cord disease or spinal cord transection

Physiopathologie of Rectal Prolapse

The pathophysiology of rectal prolapse is not completely understood or agreed upon. There are two theories postulated, almost of the same idea.

The first theory postulates that rectal prolapse is a sliding hernia through a defect in the pelvic fascia. The second theory says that rectal prolapse starts as a circumferential internal intussusception of the rectum beginning near the anus. With time and straining, this progresses to full-thickness rectal prolapse, though some patients never progress beyond this stage.

Diagnostic of Rectal Prolapse 

  • Clinical examination including anorectal examination
  • Anal electromyography
  • Anal manometry
  • Anal ultrasound
  • Pudendal nerve terminal motor latency test
  • Proctography
  • Colonoscopy
  • Proctosigmoidoscopy
  • MRI

Traitements of Rectal Prolapse

In earlier stages, taking stool softeners and replacing the rectum by hand may suffice. However, eventually, surgical correction is necessary.

The two most common types of surgery:

  • Abdominal: This type of surgery can be done either with a large incision or using laparoscopy, which uses small cuts and a camera attached to an instrument so the surgeon can see what needs to be done and if any additional issues need to be fixed.
  • Perineal: Also called rectal repair, this approach may be used if the patient is older or have other medical problems. It involves the inner lining of the rectum or the portion protruding out of the anus.

Pronostic of Rectal Prolapse

  • The prognosis for elderly patients presenting with rectal prolapse is variable and depends on the nature of any underlying or associated problems and the age and general well-being of the patient.
  • Spontaneous resolution usually occurs in children but a minority of children who experience rectal prolapse continue to experience it in their adult lives.

Complications of Rectal Prolapse

  • Rectal damage like ulceration or bleeding
  • Permanent prolapse that cannot be replaced by hand
  • Strangulation
  • Gangrene

Diet for Rectal Prolapse

  • À éviter

Les repas lourds et les aliments difficiles à digérer provoquent des indigestions.

Junk foods- cause disturbance in digestion and reduces the bioavailability of the medicine

Boissons gazeuses - rendent l'estomac plus acide et perturbent la digestion

Aliments réfrigérés et congelés - provoquent une digestion faible et paresseuse en affaiblissant Agni (le feu digestif).

Milk and milk products – increase kapha, obstruct channels and obesity

Caillé - provoque le vidaaha et, par conséquent, de nombreuses autres maladies

  • A ajouter

Des repas légers et des aliments faciles à digérer

Green gram, soups, sesame oil

Freshly cooked and warm food processed with minimal spices.

Comportement :

Protect yourself from extreme hot & cold climates.

Il est préférable d'éviter une exposition excessive à la lumière du soleil, au vent, à la pluie ou à la poussière.

Maintenir une alimentation et un sommeil réguliers.

Évitez de retenir ou de forcer les envies comme l'urine, les selles, la toux, les éternuements, etc.

Évitez la sédentarité. Soyez actif.

Yoga for Rectal Prolapse

Regular stretching and mild cardio exercises are advised. Also, specific yogacharya including naadisuddhi pranayama, bhujangaasana, pavanamuktasana is recommended.

Research articles of Rectal Prolapse

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24352613/

  • PMID: 29336759

 

A retrospective study to review pediatric robotic rectopexy experience from 2012 to 2015 was done at a single institution. Four pediatric patients underwent a robotic rectopexy for rectal prolapse from 2012 to 2015. Three patients were male and one was female. The mean age was 15.5 years. Three patients were completed robotically, and one patient required conversion to an open procedure. The average postoperative length of stay was 3.25 days. There were no episodes of recurrent prolapse. The study concluded that Robotic rectopexy provided a safe, reliable, and short-term resolution of rectal prolapse in pediatric patients.

  • PMID: 32424455

A study aimed to compare ventral mesh rectopexy (VMR) and pelvic organ prolapse suspension surgery (POPS) in the management of patients presenting with rectal prolapse was done. The study was a prospective cohort trial in which 120 female patients with complete rectal prolapse were included, 60 patients had had VMR and the other 60 had had POPS as surgical management for complete rectal prolapse. The patients were assessed 6 months postoperatively. There was no significant statistical difference regarding hospital stay and postoperative pain. Operative time was significantly shorter in POPS in comparison with VMR. VMR showed slight improvement regarding constipation and continence scores; however, this was statistically significant. VMR showed fewer complications compared to POPS. The study concluded that POPS is comparable to VMR in the management of rectal prolapse and in improving the ODS symptoms. Thus, POPS can be used as an easier, faster option to treat rectal prolapse in selected patients.
