I'll start out with the oddest part - every once in awhile (and I do mean awhile...every other month or so, it seems...it's hard to keep track of) I get this intense pain in my rectum, like there's something inside just twisting my insides roughly. The pain lasts anywhere from 5-15ish seconds, but the last time it happened (which was about 3-4 weeks ago, I'd say) it seemed to go on longer and be even more painful. It's only happened a handful of times and it's usually a long period of time between them, but still. It sounds odd and not-normal to me.

Also, as of the last 6 months or so (again, could be longer? I'm bad at this), I've had regular bowel movements - once a day or so. But sometimes I get this extreme urgency to go. Today, for example, I was actually scared of not making it to the bathroom because I was at work.

The first part I have no idea about. Could the second part be my diet? Do I need to watch what I'm eating more and pay attention? Could they be related?

I haven't spoken to my doctor on either of these matters, but I do plan to soon. Any thoughts?
