The best treatment for prolapse in pets

If the anal prolapse is not serious, i.e. within 1cm, take saline to clean it immediately, then apply erythromycin ointment on the middle finger and rub it gently on the anus, slowly pushing the anus in. Even if you push it in, it may come out the next time you have a bowel movement, so it is advisable to go to the hospital to find out what the cause of the prolapse is. If the prolapse is severe, i.e. more than 1cm, or if it is accompanied by abrasion, inflammation or pus, you should be taken to a doctor as soon as possible and have it surgically repaired. To prevent re-prolapse, a purse suture can be made around the anus.
