A member asked:

2nd time. i've had a bm and had to strain. when straining i feel bubbles popping and burning burps

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tenesmus: Definition of "tenesmus" = ineffectual & painful straining at stool. If this sounds familiar, please stop and seek medical help or risk hemorrhoids, fissures, prolapse, etc. Rectal dysfunctional, and for that matter constipation in general, can reflect a variety of problems that should be systemically evaluated and treated. It sounds like you're straining hard enough as to promote regurgitation.
