Wow cnote. You are me. I have exactly the same feeling/symptoms, I suffer from anxiety, and constantly believe I have anal cancer or prostate cancer. Did you ever find out what this was? You describe it every way I describe it. This is so weird. It is like I wrote your post. Lol
Thanks
Graeme
Feeling a little better today!! Yay!!! My tailbone area is really sore though...
I'm really thinking now, I probably injured myself somehow... probably from working on last saturday...
Even though I didn't work out my legs at all... i did do a lot of bench press and butterflies... and worked out my back.
I'm SURE you can still strain something down there muscle wise... even if you are not working out those muscles per say.
I'm going to continue stretching a lot today while at work... not sit too much. I brought a special pad to sit on today to take some pressure off my sacrum/coccyx/tailbone area.
I think I can quit worrying now... =)
Because I can 100% say, I am feeling MUCH better today than yesterday and the day before etc. etc.
So it MUST be getting BETTER and not worse.
I can't believe I give myself so much anxiety over these things.
You are right, I do tend to make things worse than what they are... I have having lower back pain with this too...
That there is making me think now that it could be muscle spasms in my lower back near my sacrum/coccyx also making my rectum muscles spasm as well?
Or it could still be something like an internal hemorrhoid.
It hasnt went away yet... it's been 3 days now... should I still wait it out?
Again, it feels like my rectum is constantly pushing/puckering and there is pressure in my rectum. I am not constipated... but I have noticed the pressure feeling does kind of feel better after I have a bowel movement.
its not painful per say, but it is very uncomfortable feeling like this all day!!! And my tail bone/lower back muscles are tense and hurt... Feels like ive been sitting on a dang bicycle all day... and my bones/rectum area are sore from it. IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!
It does feel a little better when I'm up and walking around... but can still feel the pressure some... but when im sitting down.. it seems to get more intense... and my talk bone/lower back get sore too.
I keep fearing its cancer or something... like prostate cancer... because sometimes the muscle between my rectum and my scrotum feels pressure too.
Again, I'm only 26 male... pretty good health... i have been exercising for about 2 months now every other day... may not drink as much water as i should... but i do eat good... over all im in good health!
I'm too young to have prostate cancer right!!??
thanks guys! The dr. said if its not feeling better by Monday to call him and come in and see him... PRAYING this alleviates before then...
Is it possible to have rectal muscle spasms? and for this long?
dude, (bum) issues again! hope you are doing ok! Again I would suggest you not call your Dr. for these issues, you have from previous post proven repeatly that (100%) your thoughts of something wrong with you, have in fact been wrong!
Everytime you have a issue (forget the cost factor) your brain is preceiving DANGER, when no danger is present, then you call your Dr. and you are telling yourself , yes there is danger, which can only make your anxiety worse. unless you have some other medical issues your not posting, you are a healthy young man. take care , Samuel
hmf099 Holy cow! That describes the feeling perfectly!!! Pressure and the feeling of constant "puckering". like its pushing a little put its not!? I'll get on a high fiber diet asap. lol. Thanks so much!!!
Feeling a little better today... been using a heating pad some... and trying to avoid sitting as much as possible at work.
My husband's internal hemorrhoids never itched or burned, he described it as pressure and a "puckering feeling". Prep h, tucks, and other otc meds didn't help, oddly enough his specialist put him on a high fiber diet which worked wonders.I'm sure your dr will figure out what's up.
