Causes of rectal pain and cramping? Something bad? I'm worried!?
Hi.
I’m a 20 year old female. Pretty healthy in general.
For the past month or so though, I have had a bad aching
pain in my rectum. This ach is always there and sometimes
I have cramps in my back or my stomach like I have to go
to the bathroom, but I’m not sure that I do.
In fact it kind of feels like I’m full and have to go, but
when I try I usually don’t.
I went to the doctor today and he felt up there
and said everything felt normal, but he
reffered me to a specialist just in case.
My appointment isn’t for a couple weeks and
I just want to know now if this sounds like
it could be something really bad cause I’m
scared out of my mind and can’t sleep.
Does anyone know what this could be?
Cancer came up on a google search for my symptoms, but I don’t have a lot of the symptoms of rectal cancer. But like… is it possible that’s what it is? Damnit, I’m way scared!!

You’re too young for that type of cancer, but it could be just irritation, parasites, or even hemorrhoids.
diverticulitis?
just relax…. specialist are for different fields of medicine, and he is referring you to someone who knows all about colon health etc…
just wait till you go, he/she may even want to do a colonoscopy,which will show your entire rectum/colon..
no worries… just relax…
I think it sounds like you may be constipated and that you’re trying so hard to "go" that you’ve strained and now have hemorrhoids. I could be wrong, but just type in Google Search "hemorrhoids" and research it a bit. Are you regular in your bowel movements? It just seems logical, at first read.
calm down stressing wont do you any good in-fact the more your body stresses the worse you can make a condition
just wait to go to the doctor for information before you try to diagnose yourself
don’t worry, stay calm, i’m sure you will be fine
if it feels like it’s progressing go back to the doctor for help
I will include you in my prayers, and i wish you the best
Love,

I understand you’re scared, but looking at a bunch of websites to try to determine what your symptoms are caused from will only scare you more. There are so many different things that could be causing your symptoms, and most likely very easy to treat.
Wait it out the best you can. You’ll soon have an answer and a solution. Good luck to you.
