Frequent Hot Flashes, Goosebumps Before Passing Stools, Urge To Pass Stools After Flashes. Advice
Lately I find myself getting hot flushes and goosebumps at the same time before having to go to the toilet. Normally it comes on suddenly and I have to rush to the toilet straight away. Any advice would be much appreciated. I m about 45 minutes away from a doctor and work full rime so I haven t had a chance to visit my gp. Thank you!

Urgency for defecation could be due to many causes like protozoal infection with amoebiasis. I suggest you to see your physician who would thoroughly examine you and even request for stool examination and rule out local anal lesion as cause of your symptoms by simple clinical examination.
Wishing you healthy life
Take care
