Anal Pain/Issues: The most common problems in the rectum for a man of your age would be a hemorrhoid or an anal fissure. The fissure, can get infected. It can also, if left untreated, cause scarring that leads to a fistula track burrowing deeming into the rectum and colon. If these symptoms persist you may want to visit them with your physician.
