Brief Answer:
Proctalgia fugax
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.
The symptoms you have described could indicate proctalgia fugax.
It is due to spasm of muscles in that area.
Warm baths, calcium channel blockers, tylenol may provide relief.
Sometimes it may be due to other causes like anal fissure, hemorrhoids etc.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

Dr.R.K.
