Hi guys,
I have this strange symptom that begins usually at night. It happens when I try to pass gas, and suddenly I feel a little piece of stool stuck in the rectum. Yesterday I had a Morning BM like every day, the only thing that was a bit different yesterday is that the stool was wider than usual, it was hard to pass, but I didn't re-tear. Last night a started to feel this little piece of stool stuck, but the problem is I don't have the urge to have a BM when this happens. It is so uncomfortable, I have had this symptom that comes and goes since February, today I made an appointment with my family doctor to see what I can do about it.
Today my BM was painful, but i didn't see blood. The only thing odd I ate yesterday was some cashews, I really feel this symptom is the cause of my fissure not healing, because when I have this feeling I start to have spasms and the vicious cycle of retears, this little piece of stool puts a lot of pressure in the area. what is killing me is that i don't know the cause. Is it because of a spasm (tight sphincter), possibly I have IBS? is this constipation? Does any of you have experienced this problem?
I have a BM every day, is like my muscles are damaged and are not able to pass all the stool out. I'm so worried.
I eat a lot of fiber and drink a lot of liquid every day. I eat a lot of soluble fiber. I don't have a clue why this is happening, perhaps is because I had a big stool yesterday? Today I have the tightness feeling again :(
