So, the cloaca is no longer prolapsed?

[Skulldroog]

That does sound weird, I'm not quite sure what condition your frog has, but by the sounds of it it's cleared up. Good to hear.

Same question. How did it get healed? What did you do? Did a vet repair the prolapse?

[Wolst21LT]

the vet basically flipped it back in, and then stitched it around the outside and let it stay there for a week, and then took the stitch out, and it worked out fine. they said there is a possibility it could fall out again, and if it does i'm just going to put him down, plus he still hasn't eaten yet and i'm worried about that so we'll see what will happen. i hope he gets well though.

[Paul Rust]

That's excellent. I hope it all works out.

[Kurt]

Was the frog ever treated for gastrointestinbal parasites? Often this can cause cloacal prolapse.

[Wolst21LT]

Im not sure. they said they de-wormed him so i think so.

That's what Kurt meant in his own usually confusing way. He might be concerned about protazoa or fly larvae if they only treated for worms, so I'll let him clarify if need be.

What was so confusing about "Was the frog ever treated for gastrointestinal parasites?" Often wild caught frogs will be loaded with them. They can either be worms or protozoa. Most of the time they are both. A fecal test will confirm the presence of either. If there is no fecal sample to test, then I just assume they have both and treat for both.
