Everyday i have a bowel movement which is normal to me but for the past two days i have been experiencing very hard and painful bowel movements causing my buttocks or anus to bleed, it feels likes when i am having the bowel movements there is a tearing sensation causing me to bleed . can you tell me what may be causing this to happen
I'm on the same page as you. After I gave birth 3 months ago I find it hard to have a BM due to tearing and bleeding. This happens everytime I go. This never happened before I had a child. Very frusterating and don't know what to do.
If you are taking a vitamin that increases your iron intake, this could lead to harder feces. Which, of course, makes you strain during a bowel movement stressful. I would increasing your water and if that doesn't help, try a stool softener.
