Hi ! Good afternoon. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
From your history, and without any physical findings by your treating doctor and normal reports of all the investigations, it seems you are suffering from a condition Proctalgia fugax, a benign condition, but quite debilitating as described by you. This is not an infrequent condition, and the treatment is variable starting from anti spasmodics, calcium channel blocking agents to sub lingual nitrite during the acute episode.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
