General Surgeon 's  Response
Welcome to HCM
Greetings of the day

Consult a General Surgeon, you could be having a small ulcer at anal opening which is called as fissure in ano and that could be the cause of pain. Diagnosis of this requires thorough examination. So get a check up done from General Surgeon. It can be easily be treated so don;t worry.

HI
Thank for choosing HCM
It is just coincidence and has nothing to take with your holding and watery diarrhea, it may be water born infection, and most of the time it is self limiting only hydration is matter, do not worry just take rest have a lots of liquid, have nice day.
