A member asked:
Can weight lifting cause anal pain and tightness with bowels even though soft overnite?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Strain tightens anus: The anal muscle, sphincter, will tighten as you strain to lift heavy weights. This can lead to hemmorhoids in some people, or spasm in surrounding muscles. It is not relatd to constipation, so stool,consistency should not be a problem. Hemmorhoids can be inside, outside, or both. Get examined by your local doc to determine if this is the problem, so treatment can begin.
