Suffer From Pelvic Floor Myalgia. Have Rectal Pressure, Blood In Stool, Anal Fissures. Treatment?
Just recently I ve been diagnosed with pelvic floor myalgia but I can t shake the fact there is something more. I have been experiencing a lot of rectal pressure even to much to even fart . I have to open my buttocks in order to do so. I see little spots of blood in my poop as well. I know I have a fissure in the lower anal canal but nothing seems to be healing that either. I am not constipated but yet i still have to strain. What could it be

Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist (DM).
You have to strain because due to pain your external sphincter did not open up due to anal fissure.
So what all you have to do is:
1. Take sitz bath
2. Apply ointment containing notroglycerine or diltizem per anus, before and after defecation
3. Make your stool soft by taking some laxative if it is hard
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Remain in touch and get-well soon
