Lightning crotch in anus?

9 replies

I'm getting sharp shooting pains in my anus. I googled and one suggestion was lightening crotch.

Has anyone else had this?

Can you get lightning crotch as early as 21 weeks?

Can lightning crotch last over a couple of hours?

Could it be something else?

May be proctalgia fugax

Have googled and does sound similar to what I'm getting! Has been on and off all evening. Really unpleasant.

Javelin arse

Yep, javelin arse

It’s everything stretching.

Javelin arse is exactly what it feels like! How do I make it stop?

Yep! I got that from around 8-12ish weeks. Very normal apparently! I’m 33 weeks now and haven’t had it for quite a few months. I think it’s everything stretching, very weird feeling though!

@Stardust127 I had around then too and it's come back with a vengeance now!

Ive never found a cure, You just have to ride it out and wait for it to pass. Occasionally wakes me in the night , you have my sympathy, it's really painful but soon goes away
