Can 83 years old be treated for rectal prolapse and genital prolapse?

Question
My 83-year-old mother has rectal prolapse and uterine prolapse, and she prolapses her anus and vagina every day. She was mixed with old age, so she was not aware of the disease. Can I ask if I can treat rectal prolapse and genital prolapse at the age of 83?

Answer
Hello, can I answer the question: "Can 83-year-olds treat rectal prolapse and genital prolapse?" Your situation is as follows:
Rectal prolapse with genital prolapse is a rather complicated condition seen in older women. The cause is weak pelvic floor. Indications for treatment also depend on the patient's condition, degree of prolapse, complications or not? Determining the condition and providing a treatment plan must be done after examining the patient, which may require some supportive imaging tests. So you should take your mother to a medical facility with an anorectal specialist for examination and treatment advice.
You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System for more specific advice and examination by specialist doctors. Thank you for submitting your question to Vinmec.
