Hello - thanks for asking your question.
There are many causes of rectal/anal pain or discomfort. I suggest you see your personal physician to further evaluate this.
Hard stools may cause the pain. Often, passing a hard stool may cause a small tear in the lining of the anal canal, a condition called anal fissure. The fissure may heal slowly because of repeated injury with each bowel movement. Drinking more water or taking medications to soften your stools may help, as may using anti-inflammatory creams to reduce anal swelling. Another cause of painful defecation can be an abscess in the soft tissues surrounding the rectum and anus. Hemorrhoids, which are enlarged veins, can also cause painful defecation if a blood clot has formed (thrombosed) within them. Your history of portal varices would increase your chances of hemorrhoids.
Other causes can include anorectal stricture, herpes proctitis, prostatitis, colon polyps, rectal abscess, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel syndrome, anorectal cancer, or anorectal cysts.
Because of the wide range of causes, I suggest having this further evaluated.
I stress that this answer is not intended as and does not substitute for medical advice - please see your personal physician for further evaluation of your individual case.

Hello,
Any one of the conditions I have described may increase anorectal sensitivity and cause discomfort when passing gas. That is why this should definitely be further evaluated.
