i may be mistaken but isn't prolapse usually caused by over feeding or dehydrated or a combo of the 2. i know green tree pythons are prone to them first i've seen of a ball python getting one (but i aint looking for ball pythons with prolapse either)
I was gonna ask what are some of the reasons it could happen. I was away for three weeks and was told the last feeding was on the 7th of august. But The last time it was checked on before i returned, Thurs or Friday or last week, it hadn't pooed. When i checked on it saturday, there was poo so then i fed it on sunday, 8/22 and it pooed last night. Isn't that kinda quick? So when you said over feeding, i'm suspecting if that was the case.

As he's soaking right now, there's white matter excreting from the protrusion. What is that stuff? He's also trying to find a million ways to get out of the soak
