Not sure if this is the right forum or the proper way to ask, but my friend have the attached case is this prolapse? No pain or discomfort, but I'm worried it's more of a cancerous kind of thing. According to her this is normal

Hi, @alonzo919, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Your efforts trying to get some answers about whether this is prolapse show you are a caring friend. While understandable that the issue your friend is dealing with may be hard to describe in words alone, due to the sensitive nature of the bodily region involved, we have removed the image.

This Mayo Clinic information on rectal prolapse may be useful for you and your friend https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/rectal-prolapse/symptoms-causes/syc-20352837.

We cannot diagnose on Connect. If you or your friend is concerned about cancer, they should see a medical professional. It never hurts to ask. Has your friend talked to her doctor it?
