Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of shooting pan from anus going towards abdomen; lasts for only 5-10 seconds and occurs when sitting in the toilet.
This has been happening for a few years and you are 21 year old female.
The commonest cause of such an appearance can be due to the fissure or so in the anal canal which gives this sharp pain going up.
The instigating or enhancing causes are always constipation, stress and anxiety.
You should avoid all the foods and beverages that cause constipation or so.
Another cause can be proctitis and IBS, irritable bowel syndrome.
Consult a Proctologist for internal examination , getting the correct diagnosis and proper treatment.
