Totally, it happened to me a lot. The worse the stress the longer the pain would last. Sometimes I wouldn't even realise I was stressed until I felt that prickle in my bottom!
I learned to consciously relax my bottom, not just in stressful times but all the time.
Now it's not an issue any more. So glad to know you are getting better - keep up the good healing, and try checking in with your butt several times a day, to deliberately relax it.
Nifedipine/lidocaine, no help
Diltiazem, effective, but caused major rash
Nitroglycerine, effective.
Topical estrogen for final healing.
Gentle heat to bottom - pain relief, muscle relaxant
Kondremul mineral oil
Time - lots of time.
Status - Healed!
