Anyone else get intense pressure in their bottom that makes them nauseous??!!

[Clueless2000]

I know it sounds weird but every few months I get a weird episode of really intense pressure - like I (sorry) really need a poo - except I don’t.

I sit on the loo waiting for it to pass and the feeling is so strong, it makes me feel like I’m going to throw up. I honestly feel like I just want to lay on the bathroom floor.

I vaguely remember reading somewhere that it could be linked to endometriosis - which I don’t have - but I do have mild adenomyosis. Is it linked to that???

Anyone else had this before????

I've heard of this sort of thing being linked to the vegus nerve.

I’ve heard of something similar too. Can’t remember the name of it but an intense pains in your arse. I thought it was piles by that’s not what was described. I was asking a friend and she said she gets it

Is this javelin arse? Frequently mentioned on here. Can’t offer any more info as haven’t experienced it.

I get it frequently but mine is connected to my ulcerative colitis,

I’ve had something similar, I’ve come to the conclusion it’s a pelvic floor issue of some kind like maybe cramps / spasm of the muscle as that’s the general kind of area affected.

Whether it is I have no idea. It doesn’t happen much thankfully

The nausea / vomit feeling I get more regularly and it’s linked to what I assume is IBS cramps

Not nice! Sorry you’re suffering OP

Could it be linked to something you've eaten?

I used to get Javelin Arse. Never made me want to throw up though - just briefly extremely painful. And for some reason it always used to happen when I was driving.

Isn't it IBS?

Javelin arse. I have experienced it due to endometriosis. Have you had a laparoscopy to check for endo? It is closely linked to adenomyosis.

Yup javelin arse! I also have endometriosis and adenomyosis.

I get this when I ovulate. I think only on one side though as it's not every month.

It's called Proctalgia fugax and it's quite common. Its nothing to worry about and caused by muscle spasms.

I've had it myself and yes, it's breathtakingly painful, to the point you feel sick. I usually get it when I need the loo.

Only when I was heavily pregnant. Dreaded needing the loo!

Just looked up proctalgia fugax and yes I think it’s that! Glad to know it’s not just me!

Yes, me too.
Javelin arse, otherwise known as Proctalgia -- pp's are totally correct.

My attacks are usually at night but I've had three at daytime where I am rendered totally incapable of anything as the pain is so intense. Like you, I feel nauseous with the pain and nothing, NOTHING helps - you just have to let it run its course.

Mine last between 10-30 minutes and the only thing that eases it is so sit on the loo and bear down as if I am trying to poo (sorry TMI).

It's horrible but it doesn't seem to be linked with any other health issues.

Yes as above. Utterly unbearable. Seems worse when I’ve had a period of drinking alcohol I think. Normally lasts about 30 mins and is utterly incapacitating

It’s so bloody weird. Do men get it too? Bet they don’t 🙄
