rectal pain and pressure???
think all I have is some bad gas…but I just want to be sure. I have never experienced this kind of pain and pressure before. It started last night. I started to feel like I needed to go #2…I was watching a movie so I put it off. then I started feeling worse very quickly. My lower stomach was cramping…like in my uterus area. I had a lot of lower back pain with rectal pressure. So I went to the bathroom and did go #2, but the pain just got worse as I went. The pressure started to turn into sharp pains. I stayed on the toilet thinking I still needed to go…but I didn’t. Eventually I gave up and stumbled to my couch. The pain was really bad. I couldn’t do anything but lay on my couch and squirm. I was sweating and feeling nausea and light headed. I finally felt ok enough that I didn’t think I’d pass out and I got up and took 2 Tylenol. Then I collapsed back on my couch for about 4 hours. It hurt all night long but not as bad as it was. I am still having lower stomach and back pain and rectal pressure. And the pain intensifies when I go to the bathroom. There is no blood or anything like that.
Is that just gas or something worse?
Thanks

Call your doctor because you should have a Colostomy done you may have developed some polyps that can be easly removed befor they become cancerous.
Oh, honey – get yourself to the doctor or to urgent care. That doesn’t sound like just gas or constipation.
Good luck, sweetie!
it might just be gas but it could be something more serious like an intestinal blockage or appenticitis. i seriously think you should call your doctors office. Intense constipation can cause this kind of pain too
I did the same thing last year. Thought I was having a heart attack. turned out to be my gallbladder. Had it removed.
