Possibly colitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for posting a query to HCM,

The tenderness you are suffering from looks to be due to mild acute colitis. I suggest you to take a probiotic along with proton pump inhibitors for 3-5 days which will give you relief. As a self care use hot bag to place on affected area which will help in releasing any muscle spasm if persists.

Any query do get back.

Take care.
