Pain in the bum, quite literally

Blush

Have had for nearly a week an odd pain in my bottom. It feels like something I've had before that was just one of those odd things you get (mine was prob related to anxiety) but when I had it before it didn't last nearly as long.

I have on and off a sort of discomfort feeling inside my bottom hole Blush. Sometimes it progresses to quite bad pain which doesn't last that long, but is nasty and sharp and when bad I can't move. It sometimes feels like I need to go to the loo but I can't or don't need to. Sometimes when I do it feels alot better afterwards.

I had put it down to a nervy thing but since it's never lasted this long and I had a teeny tiny amount of bleeding when I wiped today (bright red) I'm getting a bit Hmm . I did have bad ovulation pain last week (it's worse now I have a coil) and a bout of IBS spasms which haven't yet died down - I'm hoping everything is just a bit mental in the lower tummy area and will settle down Confused

Didn't want to leave you unanswered!

I'm not medically trained but: the feeling you describe sounds a bit like what I can get with IBS - the urge to open your bowels without reason.
If there's only a tiny bit of blood it could be piles? There's a recent thread about them on here!

HTH a bit :-)

Thanks bookfairy I hope it's just IBS. Buscopan does seem to somewhat help it sometimes which makes me think it might be. It was just the bleeding and the fact it's gone on so long which worried me a little

Oh you have my sympathies...I think you are suffering from a condition called proctalgia fugax......well not medically qualified but I suffer from this and it truly is horrendous and no laughing matter....check out this link and scroll down as is near the end of the page... There is other reasons on the link for bottom pain if not this. www.embarrassingproblems.com/problem/anal-pain

Funnily enough two I was looking on that very web page earlier and thought I could have that Wink . Not sure though as it doesn't completely go inbetween bouts at the min. Thanks for the sympathies though Grin

Could be piles or anal tear. just go to doc who will insert very small finger not very far - doesn't hurt or anything.
