Suggest Treatment For Pain In Rectum
I was awoken from a deep sleep last night with a burning or cutting pain in the area of the rectum. I did not have to go but tried to go to the bathroom but could only pass gas. The pain lasted for about 30 minutes and I was able to lay back down and go to sleep. It has never happened before but the pain was quite severe for the 30 minutes that it occurred. I have not been constipated and have been very regular. Any ideas?

Hi thanks for asking question.
As you frequently have constipation there is friction of anal area while passing stool..
Take stool laxative for smooth bowel movement.
Take high fiber diet like whole grain, wheat bran , apple , banana etc....
Drink more water....
More fruits....
Avoid smoking....
Chamomile in tea useful....
Get your anal region examined by proctoscopy examination for piles...
If present anal area warm water sitz bath useful...
