Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,
Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX
Well looking into the problem and the history you give I would say that in my opinion you are suffering from rectal prolapse . Patients with rectal prolapse generally report a mass protruding through the anus. Initially when it starts , the mass protrudes from the anus only after a bowel movement and usually retracts when the patient stands up. Constipation occurs in 20 -65% of cases suffering from rectal prolapse .
I will advise you to consult a surgeon for this and some stool softeners will be needed to regularise your bowel movements .
Take care.
