What Causes Piercing Feeling Inside The Rectum?
Dear dr. I am 34 years old. I have one problem with my the lower part of the intestine. From the high school I have a feeling that something pinch in the upper part of the anus. It is feeling as like someone stabbed me with a knife. I don´t have problem with the digestion. This rub is not often but is uncomfortable. Can you please explain what it would be reason for my pain. Thank you for your answer.

Hi.
It could be due to hard fecal matter that accumulates in the region of the rectum, but I cannot be too sure. If you bowels also are normal then there should be no reason to worry, but for a while you can try and increase your fluid intake and also your fiber intake and check in about 2-3 weeks time to see if you still have this feeling. If so, then request for a colonoscopy.
Best wishes.
