The "what ever they are" hurt to the touch and there is some bleeding along with "water like" substance after BM's.I can feel them when in the sitz--the place that I live, most days. It has been almost 10 hours since BM and I am still in spasm. I have been living like this for a very long time. The other thing i was told by the receptionist is that he wants me to immediately have a colonoscopy and book it now. I told her that was impossible. I can barely walk from the pain most days. I do the cowboy walk most of the time. I really am terrified and appreciate everyone's input.
The water like substance is exactly what I had when they told me I had an absess. Have you noticed a unpleasant smell recently? I know that area isn't going to smell of roses but if the discharge you're getting also has a smell with it it's very likely you've got an infection. If this is the case with you then they will most likely be able to tell just with a visual examination. An absess could explain why you are in quite so much pain too. Hopefully you'll get answers soon. A colonoscopy wouldn't be a bad thing but stress that you'd need to be knocked out during the procedure.
