I usually have a bm once a day but there are days that is usually 2 a day. I seem to notice that everytime i do a bm more than once, my butt is sore. Spasms for how many hours and this feeling that you want to poop again but nothing comes out. Have you guys encountered this? Currently had a retear the past week due to a hard tip bm…stool is soft now with the help of prune juice and colace but still there are days with slight bleeding.

Hi Camry,

yes this sounds very common, there are so many nerves around that area, the spasms can make it feel like you have to go again.. hard tipped Bms are the worst! sometimes very difficult to pass. keep up with your prune juice, you can always try a warm bath after to stop the spasms.

Thanks for the reply. Yes that is exactly what i am doing. It is just frustrating to think that there are days without blood plus soft tip and then one retear you are you are back at it again.
