I am a 22 year old male. I have a sedentary lifestyle. I had difficulty passing stool for about 6 weeks because I felt there was some obstruction in my rectum or anus and I always felt a heaviness in my anus and rectum. I went to my doctor and she ordered a Barium Enema. I had the enema. For some reason, that cured me of my problem, for about 6 weeks. Then the same problem has started again. I have to go to the bathroom around 10 times a day. The enema result came out normal.
There is a difference this time. My stool is thinner. I started running regularly and that solved the problem of the heaviness, but now i feel some kind of tingling in my left butt. I have an appointment with a specialist in about 6 weeks but I can't wait that long for an answer because I fear I may have cancer.
