4. Pressure
Pressure may be due to gas. Sensations of rectal pressure may occur frequently. The need to defecate may be accompanied by urgency. Sometimes the bowels do not empty completely and a lingering sensation of fullness may occur.
Pressure and straining to move the bowels may cause hemorrhoids to develop. Pressure is relieved as other symptoms are corrected. Consuming a fiber rich diet helps to improve stool consistency and bowel regularity. This can help to facilitate defecation and relieve constipation that results in pressure.
