For the last five or six weeks, I have been having trouble with my bowel movements. It hurts quite badly, like trying to pass glass. Afterwards, there's bright red blood on the tissue. The blood, however, is definetely NOT in the stool. This went on for awhile and I find that the pain has slowly been going away, however my bowel movements are less frequent then they were. Maybe once a day and I also have a weird, dull, pain in the lower right part of my buttocks. It doesn't hurt really, more like an annoying sensation, like a throbbing. It feels somewhat like a charlie horse and sometimes I can even feel the pain in the upper portion of my leg. I find when I stretch it out, it feels better. Has anyone ever experienced this? I think I could possibly be paranoid as my aunt was just diagnosed with bowel cancer. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
