hi
likely you are suffering from ulcerative colitis or a indeterminate disease
the symptoms suggest you are having tenesmus due to rectal involvement
in such case a stool examn, sigmoidoscopy will confirm same
if rectal inflamm is there changing doses and addng medication enema will help
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
