See your GI MD: The feeling of the need to defecate without actually being able to, may be a manifestation of active colitis. You should call your GI specialist to be seen. If colonoscopy reveals active colitis, you will likely need treatment. Meanwhile make sure you are well hydrated - drink whatever you can until seen my your md.
