rectal pain from exercising? sorry for tmi?
I have been on an exercise program for about 3 weeks now and i noticed when i first started it i was having a lot of bleeding when i would go to have a bowel movement. Well it subsided and went away. Well last night i had constipation really bad and my rectum has been hurting really bad all day today. It hurts to sit down and get up. The pain is not unbearable but it is enough to be very irritating and cause discomfort throughout my day. I put neosporin on my rectum and it helped a little.
Is this from the exercising? What is going on, anyone else experience this?
I do have an appointment with my gynecologist on April 9th…do you think that that is too long to wait???

Sounds like you have haemorrhoids. And if they aren’t treated they will get worse and even more painful (sorry). You need to head off to the doctor or even a female nurse to make you feel a bit more comfortable, and get her to have a look. The good news is that the treatment for haemorrhoids is easy and affordable. But I do think you need a nurse to look at them because the severity needs to be known. Don’t worry, haemorrhoids is very common, we all get them at some stage in our life and some are worse than others. But if left untreated, the pain will become utterly unbearable. Good luck
It sounds like an anal fissure. My brother has that right now, and he has the same symptoms. Here’s a link to it, read it and see if it’s what you might have.
