Carpet python prolapsed rectum

So my carpet python today had what I believe to be a partially prolapsed rectum. It happened as it was trying to poop. I assisted in helping her pass the poop and the prolapse went back in. I know have her resting on some moist paper towels. My concern is the risk of possible infection not only from me even though my hands were washed but also from contact with the outside environment. I am looking for advice on whether she should go to the vet just in case or if I should wait and see if she exhibits any unusual behavior. Thank you in advance for any suggestions/help you can offer. I attached a pic below of what the prolapse looked like before it went back in.
