I am currently getting pain in my rectum along with difficulty passing stools. I have gone to the toilet and passed stools successfully over the last 48 hours but my rectum feels tight and unable to pass stool straight away after a bowel movement. Stool feels hard to pass, rectum has a sharp pain on the inside, always have to strain to pass stools, extremely bloated and very uncomfortable all the time, I have no appetite currently and have tried using laxatives, changing my diet and keeping myself hydrated. Nothing has worked so far. What is my next options?
