Sorry if this is too graphic but it's a question on my mind.
I have been suffering from some rectal prolapse over the years due to the tenesmus and spasms when trying to go. This usually is in varying degrees. It's never a full prolapse but it's gotten enough to where I have to gently push it in when my rectum is going through turmoil to defecate. It kind of is a lump of the anal tissue that I just need to push up a bit but never the mucosa or anything.
I was wondering if anyone else ever had this prior to surgery and if this would impact my ability to get a j pouch? I never had continence issues related to it but not sure if it will require special surgical treatment when getting a j pouch.
