Ok, I dont think they are a prolaps. But when my lizard poops, two 3/4" long things come out of my lizards butt. Then when his poop is done, they go back in. Is this normal, or a seriouse problem? Please someone tell me this is nothing to worry about.
Once again guys and girls thanks for your help.

Lolol I have 2 males and one that I'm 99% sure is female. They're all great! The only downside I see for males are the sperm plugs, they are SO SO SO SO SO GROSS.

Well, I'm relieved and embarassed at the same time. Thank you all for the help.
If I die, I hope I dont come back as a tegu... He drags his "Double Barel" through the mulch. OUCH. It would be hard to pull those splinters out of there if you didnt have thumbs.
