Infantile rectal prolapse (Tuogang) is caused by prolonged diarrhea or dysentery. The head of the large intestine protrudes from the anus. It is advisable to fumigate and wash with scallion water until soft, then manually push it back into place. First, administer antidiarrheal medicines, followed by medicines such as Huaijiao Wan (Sophora Fruit Pill). Additionally, fumigate and wash with a decoction of Chinese Gallnut (Wubeizi) mixed with alum powder to retract the bowel. If accompanied by hemorrhoidal swelling and pain, this condition arises from the wet nurse's diet; specifically, the consumption of rich, pungent, and fried foods transmitted through breast milk.
It is advisable to apply Danshi San (Cinnabar Powder) or Shengxue Gao (Snow-White Ointment) to the swollen area for excellent results. Internally, take Huanglian Jiedu Tang (Coptis Decoction for Resolving Toxicity); externally, wash with Kushen Tang (Sophora Root Decoction), or wash with a decoction of Fangfeng (Saposhnikovia Root) and Jingjie (Schizonepeta Spike). Alternatively, applying powders of Ledoucseng (Litharge), Alum, and Bingpian (Borneol) to the lesion is also effective. One may also apply a paste made from Castor Seed (Bimazi) to the top of the head (Baihui point, GV20); the intestine will retract immediately, and the castor seed must be washed off urgently to avoid adverse effects. Furthermore, washing with Kushen Tang (Sophora Root Decoction) is also effective. Whenever the protruding intestinal tissue itches, it indicates the presence of parasites; one may fumigate and wash with a decoction of Raw Mugwort Leaf (Sheng Ai Ye) and Toosendan Root (Chuanliangen).
