Hello there, yes it's true you should not lift heavy weights anymore. Since your muscles have grown weaker and you can again face the same problem in the future. However I can suggest that if you were planning to exercise then you should wear very tight underwear and abdominal belts. Main aim should be to avoid excess abdominal pressure with me again result in rectal prolapse or hernia. So you can decrease the number of sets but increase the frequency.
