What Causes Diarrhea And Pain In The Anus?

Hi, I ve had loose motion since the past 2 days. Every 5-6 hours, I feel like using the toilet. When I do, I pass really loose stools (almost water sometimes), but VERY little in quantity. The problem is, right after this, I still feel like there is something actually stuck there like something sharp. More pressure only makes it hurt. After that, I have anal pain for about 20 minutes. Then it goes away. But I still feel, some stool is still left and stuck. I can t apply more pressure. Tell me what should I do?

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your bowl movements.

As you said since last two days you had frequent loose stools or diarrhea, this can be because of food poisoning or intestinal gastritis. For that you must take plenty of fluids to be hydrated.

As your symptoms of pain in Anal region is concerned it can be because to increased frequency and application of large amount of pressure during the act of bowl movements. As the Anal sphincter or rectal mucosa becomes vulnerable and sometimes even gets hurt during diarrhea and leads to further urge to visit toilet and sensations of of something stuck.

You don't need to worry but incase it persist you must visit to get your lower abdomen scanned or even colonoscopy may be advised too.

Hope the answer to your question. Write to us further if you feel further need.

Regards
Dr Muzaffer.
