Embarrassed

[user347658910]

Has anyone experienced pain in the bum before? It's happened 3 times in so many days now. Short lived but stop-in-your-tracks deep bum pain. I have today started my period but not had this before and worried.

Anyone?

Javelin Arse?

Piles?
trapped nerve?

constipated?

Could it be wind? I sometimes get intense arse pain when I have trapped wind. Literally feels like sitting on a sword.

Not constipated . Can you get period pain in your bum?

Could it be your coccyx?

Do you mean an anal spasm?

I ger period pain in my bum! Really sgarp stabbing pain, always have done. Had it during all 3 labours too, joy!

I think it's called Proctalgia Fujax, I've had it several times, horrid but harmless

Holy shit I have to breathe through it and waddle for a few minutes.

Fugax

Yes! I used to get this all the time around my period. It was literally like a knife stabbing me right up my bum. Horrendous. Funny enough its stopped since I had my kids.

These spasms that have been mentioned... I guess that describes it; short lived but fecking hell kind of pain. Are they ominous?

Oh Javelin Arse. Yes it's horrible isn't it! I get it once in a while, I haven't died yet!

I've googled javelin arse - a fitting description but suggests endometriosis. Oh bloody hell more to worry about.

Yes I remember reading about it being linked to endometriosis. I dont have endo. And have bern through the full catalogue of fertility tests before IVF. Javelin arse is very apt!

Javelin arse.

I've had two kids. Endo would have been picked up, right? Or can it develop any time?

Could be endo. I used to get this and had no clue what it was, but was diagnosed with endo when we were struggling to conceive. My endo was picked up during a laparoscopy...it's the only way it can be diagnosed. So perhaps worth a chat with gp if it continues?

I have this. In period & before period. After 2 children too. Had a scan via the Drs but found nothing / got a coil because they couldn't think of anything else and hasn't helped.

I was told as I could "live with it" then there's nothing they can do. Queue a feminist rant from me about "if it happened to men...."

Those of you who get it...how often? Does it come in waves? Clusters? Last a few days then nothing? Sorry for the bombardment!

It is more likely to do with the pelvic floor muscles going into spasm , if it becomes more permanent than a women's health physio can help.

I get javelin arse on my period. Always have done!
