If something that looks like an organ comes out your rectum what could it be?

It is most likely a "prolapsing internal hemorrhoid" (a large rectal vein protruding).

This is common, but see a specialist promptly for treatment.

What can you do about a rectum prolapse to a dog?

Seek immediate veterinary care if you suspect your dog has a prolapsed rectum. It requires immediate attention as infection and inability to eliminate results quickly. The vet can do a less invasive procedure using a "purse string" suture, to restrict the opening and hold the rectum in place - the goal being to provide an opportunity for scarring to re-affix the rectum in place. Such a procedure is left in for a few weeks. A more invasive surgery can be performed to fix the problem; this may be tried if the first option has failed.

Is the rectum the exit for excrement or feces?

Excrement is the same thing as feces. Although it is arguable that excrement is the material after it is excreted from the body (as opposed to the material still in the rectum), the matter is the same. Also, it should be noted that the rectum is not the exit, just the final storage place before the anus, the true exit.

What is the opposite of anal?

The opposite of "anal," in a psychological or behavioral context, often refers to being more relaxed or spontaneous, characterized by a laid-back or easygoing attitude. While "anal" connotes rigidity, orderliness, and a focus on details, its opposite might be described as free-spirited or carefree. In a more casual sense, it can also relate to being less concerned with rules and structure.

What cream could you use if you scratched your anus a bit too hard and have damaged the skin so now every time you have a bowel movement it hurts otherwise What can help it heal?

There are several options for a minor skin cut near the rectum -- an external cut. First, obviously, use care when wiping after a bowel movement. Second, because feces contains E-coli bacteria, you ALSO MUST gently wash the area after EVERY bowel movement. Do not rub. Instead, lay a warm wash cloth on the area and PAT -- lift the cloth, pat it back into place... repeat. Make sure the water is warm, not steaming hot. Then, PAT DRY the area with soft toilet tissue paper. After drying, wash your hands--just so you don't spread E-coli to things you touch. Next, put a small dab of neosporin or A&D ointment on the area. Neosporin is in first aid in the pharmacy...A&D ointment may be infirst aidor baby care aisle.



Witch Hazel is an antiseptic that is used EXTERNALLY---it will burn badly for 15 seconds, but then it feels cool. It reduces inflamed tissue near the anus.


If it is similar to the irritation from hemorrhoids, that kind of cream can help reduce the sting and burning.


The main problem with a cut near the anus is infection. Keep it clean, dry, and covered with ointment. If it doesn't heal within a week, see your doctor for a prescription antibacterial cream.



If this is an internal cut... I'd recommend talking to your doctor or call any pharmacy. The problem is, you can't see how long or how deep the cut is. If the cut is inside the rectum---beyond the sphincter--the doctor can prescribe a cream you can use internally.



P.S. Short nails really help reduce cuts from scratching. Also, if you find yourself often to be itchy there, you may not be rinsing soap off completely.

Why is a 14-month-old's rectum smaller than his colon?

What do I do when I have a problem with my anus?

It depends on the problem. If you have hemorrhoids, itching, or anal bleeding, there are over the counter products to address those problems. If that doesn't help, you should see a doctor. In addition, do note that there are serious problems that may seem like hemorrhoids, include an anal hernia, and these conditions need medical attention.

If you are constipated, there are a number of over the counter products you can use for this. You may prefer to try the more "natural" or herbal remedies and fiber first. If the problem continues or you have a blockage, or you have small and irregularly shaped stools which are difficult to remove, then you should see a doctor. Dealing with this problem may help prevent other problems.

How reduce too much air pass through rectum?

Should I be concerned if there is yellow cotton like mucous covering my stool and am very constipated with lower back discomfort.?

Yes, you should be very concerned. You have to know that your diet is horrible. Start with breakfast and have a bowl of oatmeal every morning. Use slow cooked oats instead of anything that takes less than ten minutes to cook. I eat old fashioned oates that require 15 minutes to cook. Get steel-cut oates if possible. Include a piece of fresh fruit. I recommend soy milk or better yet, goats milk.(cows milk creates muckus in the lungs and colon.) Your Doctor probably hasn't told you a lot about how to stay healthy into your golden years and most surly has failed to recommend a truly healthy diet. I wonder why? Funny thing, doctors don't make any money from well people. Only sick ones.

Cut down on red meat. eliminate it if you can. Eat more fresh vegatables and fruit. Oh, I know, I know...you know all this, so just do it! Otherwise, if you live to be old, it won't be fun. Good luck!

Will semen become clear if ejaculated in the rectum?

Interesting question, since if a dose of semen is inside a rectum, you can't see it anyway.

However, based on an informal and unscientific study I will describe, I think the answer is probably yes. When I was a teenager we lived in the country and had an outhouse. Once for curiosity I ejaculated onto a piece of cellophane, hid it, and looked the next day to see whether it had changed. It hturned from white to clear, and it was full of ants, mostly drowned but some still either wiggling or drinking.
