Prolapse v rectocele: Too often the names are interchanged rectal prolapse and rectocele. The first is prolapse of rectum through the anus, the latter is a bulging of the rectum into the vagina. The former is unlikely to respond to anyting but surgery, the latter may improve some with kegles. Keep stools soft, avoid prolonged sitting on the toilet and straining in order to keep from worsening.
