Constipation: Sounds like you're describing constipation. Check out http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/constipation/basics/definition/con-20032773 for more info. Fiber, fluids & exercise are 1st non-drug options. Pain may be due to anal fissure (skin tear) as a consequence of pushing out hard stool. Or perhaps even hemorrhoids (although you're kinda young for 'rrhoids). Many OTC options too.
