Brief Answer:
Was there anal involvement during physical relation sir?

Detailed Answer:
Hello amd thank for query sir,

Very likely you are having viral gastroenteritis.
Swelling in intestines usually causes a pain spasmodic in nature.
However the pain at the time of pooping should not be there.
As written by you you had a physical relation ship few days back.Was it straight..I mean any involvement of anal area?
As of now take Zofran for nausea and Dicyclomine for pain(Please answer as soon as possible).
Waiting.
Thanks!
