This afternoon I took my BP out for feeding and noticed that he appears to have a prolapsed rectum. I did some research and soaked him in a sugar bath for about 20 minutes, then put some sugar paste on the prolapse. This helped bring the swelling down so I could attempt to push it back in (very gently) with my finger. However, because he was straining, it kept popping back out right away. The prolapse was becoming irritated and red, and he seemed to be becoming very stressed, so I put him back in his tank.
I replaced the bedding in his tank with damp paper towels to help keep the prolapse clean and moist and put some Vaseline on it,
What next steps should I take? I'm not very familiar with reptiles, and all I know comes from reading. There aren't any herp vets in my area, eiher, from the research I've done.
