Prolapse: What you described fits in with rectal prolapse. It would be prudent to get it treated before it gets worse. Please consult your doctor for referral to a colo-rectal surgeon.

Prob hemorrhoid CMD: Internal hemorrhoids can be painless, pop out with bm; sometimes bleed. Less commonly polyps or tumors can present this way. Get checked. Rx available.
