What Causes Soreness And Pressure Around The Anal Area?
L. Hello. I have been fighting lower back pain, constipation, and a very bloated stomach. The weird thing that concerns me the most is my bottom, like anal region is sore. Feels like pressure pushing on it and feels sore like a bruise. Could I take a laxative and see if it s just constipation causing all of this?

Hello! thank you for writing us here.
Well it could be because of constipation. I would suggest you to take laxatives which should give you relief from your symptoms.
if it still continues for next 2 weeks after taking laxatives,
you should consider seeing a gastroenterologist.
best regards,
Dr Gunjan
