    Default What does it mean if a prolapse turns clear?

    So, my smaller female gray treefrog got a prolapse. I let her soak in sugar water overnight, but instead of retracting, it got bigger and turned clear. (It was pale pink before.) I assume that's because it absorbed more fluids, instead of the sugar drawing out fluids. Does Pedialyte work better?

    Since that picture was taken, I dumped out the sugar bath and added paper towels, then dabbed a little sugar water directly on the prolapse. It's shrunk somewhat and returned to its original color, but it's sort of hanging by a thread now.

    I had the same thing a few weeks back the prolapse popped shrevled up, there was a thread hanging out the vent it disappeared the next morning and everything's fine my frog is eating and happy.

    Really? Hmm, perhaps they aren't true prolapses then.

    real prolapse the frog took a huge **** and out popped his sack of intestines which he popped, and retracted back in. i would give your frog some time to retract it back. If not take it to a doctor and leave paying a minimum of 200 dollars.

    So you're saying that the fluid- filled sack ruptured and drained, he retracted it, and he was fine?
