Treatment of intestines that return to their place after prolapse is easier than treatment of swollen ones that do not return, and the method of use in each case is known. It is best to treat it the way it is usually treated, and then return it to its place and bandage the anus. If the bowel does not return, use relaxers. We should also mention means that tighten and strengthen the rectum, because most often it is precisely such means that are needed, since after their use the intestine returns to its normal position, if it returns, it becomes stronger and benefits.
