What Causes Pressure In The Rectal Area?

I have terrible pressure in my rectum area at all times except when my bowels are totally empty. Sitting is uncomfortable, so is lying down, Terrible pain after bowel movement, feels like I have to go at all times. I have bowel movements about every 1/2 hour until empty. I have had colonoscopy s before where polyps were removed. I can barely leave my home now. Please advise.
