During my last bowel movement, as I began to pass a stool, I suddenly had extremely severe rectal pain, and I fainted. The pain is difficult to describe; the best I can say is that it’s sort of a cramp-like pain.
I wasn’t straining at all, and I am certain that the act of pushing had nothing to do with the fainting. The stool wasn’t particularly large, and I haven’t been having any problems with constipation or anything like that.

I get a mild form of this pain semi-regularly, but this is the second time it’s been so severe that I fainted. The first time was about 3 years ago.

Does anyone know what would cause this? Thanks.

You never know if or when life saving treatment will save a life.

My Mother-in-law was diagnosed by 3 doctors as being terminal with colon cancer, she finally found 1 doctor who would treat her. She died of colon cancer ALMOST 30 YEARS LATER!

What to pack in your hospital bag, i just posted about the rectal pain ( if any of you’s read it ) Many people suggested i was in labor and go to the hospital. Im not sure if i am in labor or not. Im going to try and wait it out. I thought there would be more pain then this?! I just have alot of pressure..and some pain in my back..and sides…almost feels like someone pushing on my bones on my bottom area. Is it normal to go into labor, when i was only 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced 11 hours ago at my docs appt? Anyways.. IF this is labor, what do i pack in my bag?!

Can anyone give advise on parasites that people can get? Have you ever used one of those colon cleanses that are either advertised on t.v. or sold in health and vitamin stores? Would you advise being tested for parasites by a doctor and then using a medication or are the herbal remedies just as effective? I have had a lot of strange but subtle health issues lately and the doctor can find nothing wrong with me. I am just wondering if there is anything to this colon cleansing stuff and if it is worth doing.

Yes, she is spayed. I’m just not sure if this constitutes an emergency visit to the vet or not. I can’t really tell where the blood is coming from. To be honest, its hard to get that close and there is an odor. She doesn’t seem like shes in pain, but she is constantly grooming that area.

I can’t take her to a vet tonight because my husband took the car to work.

Anyone ever dealt with anything like this?

I was trying to go to the bathroom earlier, and I was constipated, so I was pushing kinda hard. And suddenly something started hurting in my butthole area every time I pushed. And it hurts REALLY bad. What could it be? And what do I do?
edit: It’s not from constipation. It’s not a "the poop won’t come out" pain. It’s a pain directly related to the pushing.
sorry if this is graphic

Where can I locate colon diseases?

the difference between lung cancer and metastasized(secondary) lung cancer,got from colon?

It’s freaking me out. It’s not constant but sometimes throughout the day (especially when I have to go to the bathroom) I have this awful almost pressure like pain and my lower abdominal area hurts. I mean earlier it hurt to go down the steps. Also I’ve been very gassy lately. (that’s awkward i know)
I’m close to my period. Sometimes when I have cramps I have these pains as well but they go away after I use the bathroom. I’ve used the bathroom multiple times and it’s still there. my mom says that this has happened to her before but I’m still completely freaked out.
Also I haven’t had much of an appetite lately. HELP!!

A surgeon is consulted and the patient is taken to the operating room. An incision is made in his right lower quadrant and a loop of intestines is found with the following characteristics: haustrum, taenia coli and epiploic appendages. The surgeon asks the 4th year medical student observing the surgery what part of the intestine this is and he correctly answers:

ileum
jejunum
stomach
ascending colon
rectum

A few days ago I had an episode…I guess. I was watching tv, the felt like I needed to go #2. I ignored it for a bit, but then I started having bad pains and decided to go. I did go #2 with no problems, but I had extreme rectal and lower stomach pains and pressure. I thought I still needed to go so I sat for awhile trying…but nothing else happened. I finally got up(still in alot of pain…it did not subside when I went to the bathroom) I layed on my couch wrything in pain, sweating and feeling dizzy and nasueas for a few minutes before I got up to take some Tylenol. I then layed back down for a few hours. I had bad pains all thru the night but not like it was in the beginning. Well that was a 2 nights ago. I have not had an episode like that again but I continue to have lots of rectal pressure and even more lower belly pain and pressure. It hurts when I try to go to he bathroom(pee or poop) when I cough, move or touch my belly. Its not horrible pain but I would rate it a 7 on a 1-10 pain scale.

I jjust do’t know why its still going on. I am not constipated…havn’t been in years. I am not bleeding or anything like that. I am a pretty healthy 23 year old female.

Some other info that might help to diagnose. I had a csection almost 2 years ago. I have adheasions from that csection, I have an IUD in place for over 1.5 years. I do not have any disease or chronic illness. I have never experienced this before.

I know it sonds like gas…I thought that too…but does gas keep going for days and days?? Its just weird and I’m worrried….thanks for any help.

have been seeing and endocronologist for several months trying to get to the bottom of some sever issues that have been going on.
Between 15 and 16 i gained over 100 pounds and have since continued to gain weight. I also have had elivated cortisol, and testostrone levels, Irregular menstral cycles, and a number of various of problems.
Recently they also discovered a mass on my adernal gland, and diagnosed me with "pre-diabetes"
My endocronolgist has chalked this all up to having PCOS.

Previously a doctor first diagnosed me with endometriosis, then also said i had PCOS.

For about the last 3 months i have been having a new arrary of symptoms that did not go along with the PCOS also.
It started with me having pain in my hip joint, then proceeded to overall pelvic pain.
This further mutated into cronic pelvic, lower back and leg pain.
Which gets nearly unbearable with my menstral cycles.
Although they have always been irregualar, lately they have also become worse than ever.
I will have 2 week long periods that are litterally like turning on a sink from the moment they hit till the moment they stop, and then will come back only 2 weeks after i have stopped. (sorry to be so graphic)
The final problem is that i have been having endless cycles of constipation and diareah accompanied by sharp pains in my rectal area. Also when i cough, sneeze, or even move sometimes, i feel a sharp tug on my pelvic region (behind/below my uterus i think), or in my lower back

Is it possible these could be endometriosis? can you have both PCOS and endometriosis together? Could the PCOS be causing these problems?

Does anyone have any suggestions about what is going on with my body?

I do plan to address these problems with my doctor, but i am currently at school 4 hours from home.

My 3 year old has been having bright red blood whenever he has a bowel movement. He also complains of abdominal pain only just before and during a bowel movement. He goes everyday and the stools are not hard or dry like he’s constipated. There’s also no sign of any injury, etc. to his rectal area. I’ve scheduled him a doctor’s appt., but just wondering if anyone else’s child has experienced this and what their diagnosis was. Thanks for the input!

please im not trying to be gross.. but i have been having rectal pains and today i used a mirror to examine myself and when i tried to go number two… instead of poop it was a piece of meat and then it went back in. its just in there growing and it hurts!!

for the last week or so i have been having pains in my rectum about a year ago i had hemmroids removed. went to the doctor and he says well i dont see ant hemmroids. i aready knew that but i tried to explain to him the pain im having. he looks at me like im crazy. it is a buring feeling like you strike a match. it fleairs up. what else can i do.every thing is not always going to be hemmroids. no bleeding this time just sharp buring pains.

I am thinking of taking a trip to a Thai spa and having a colon cleanse. Not the silly fifty pound health juices, I want to do the whole kit kaboodle. If it works.
It says that the colon is the ‘root of all disease’. I seriously doubt this, but then again I’m not a health professional.

So: does the colon cleanse actually work with health benefits? And does the whole fasting – raw – food jam work?

Thanks!
I’m centring on the colon bit – I know some people say it’s rubbish, but is there any sorta scientific proof?

I just want a little something that might help make her healthier. She also has heart disease and was borderline diabetic, so all healthy foods/fats please! Thanks guys.

PATIENT: Jonathan G.Regino-Started with fever and chill and frequent scanty painful urination. Ultrasound of urinary tract showed inflamed kidney and prostate. Digital rectal examination showed inflamed prostate. Urine culture was made to determine specific bacteria and sensitivity. Even before the result of urine culture, patient experienced excruciating pain in scrotum, particularly the left side. Palpation of scrutum showed some hard spots. Pain in scrotum was not accompanied with fever nor redness. The excuciating pain lasts until Injectable pain killers are administered. Frequency of pain attack is about 6-8 hours in between. Ultrasound of sc rotum showed Varicose Veins, enlarged & hard.

I know its not my appendix. It doesn’t hurt at all when i put pressure on my side…anywhere. Its only when i have gas or a BM. Its been going on for 4 days now, and its not as bad as it was in the beginning, just wondering what is is? Did i pull a muscle, or do i just need to eat more fiber? I have been drinking lots of water and taking it easy to be safe.

Heres a diagram showing where it is

have been told colon maybe dirty. don’t wanna do the laxative or colon cleansing stuff. help please

Well I am 22 years old and have been having rectal bleeding since the age of 15. Over the years it has gradually gotten worse. I have seen 2 doctors and one said an anal fissure the other hemroids. I have followed there threatment regimens and nothing helps! I am terrified to have a bowel movement because it brings unbareable pain to the point I feel I could passout at times. The bleeding has gotten heavier and heavier, the water in the toilet will be dark red and have no visibility to it (if that makes sense its hard to put into words), when i wipe at times there will be clumps of bright red blood and I will continue to bleed for 10 minutes or so following bowel movements. I guess what I am wanting to know is if I should be concerned, could this be serious, and what it could possibly be other than hemroids or a fissure? If it is hemroids or a fissure then why wont it go away? HELP!!!!
