Inflammation?: This suggests inflammation of the lining of the rectum. It could be an infection, e.g. an STD if your sexual activities include anal exposure; or irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease, especially if you also have diarrhea, cramps, or blood with stool. This is something that should be professionally evaluated. See your doctor. Good luck!
