I agree with Scott that it is most likely that your stricture has returned, particularly with your additional history and the description of your current stool quality. Stricture is also the more common issue and easier to diagnose.
Some prolapse is visible on exam, but others are not. For that they need to do a defagram. It is similar to a small bowel series in that it is flouroscopy of the real-time activity of the gut. Essentially, you get an enema of thick barium and they do x-ray while you expel it.
