Hi! My name is Andrew and I am 24 years old. About 6 months ago I had two instances where I noticed after a BM that there was blood on the tissue paper. I didn't think too much of it because it hasn't happened since, but I am now having pain deep in my rectum and my anal sphincter is spasming and always stays "tightened" when I am standing and sometimes while sitting. I don't feel a lot of pain...just some discomfort and it seems to be deeper in the rectum. I am planning on seeing the doctor to find out exactly what is going on, but I was wondering if anyone here has experienced their anal muscles tightening/spasming with their fissures?....After doing a lot of research online I feel like I experienced a fissure about 6 months ago and it hasn't healed or something...i dont know. Does this sound right to anyone??
Thanks in advance.
Andrew
