has anyone had any experience with sphincter muscles that are so tight the dr can barely get his finger in there..The pain is all day like I was squeezing as hard as I could to do a Kegal only I"M NOT! this extreme tension is so painful. I have GAD and pretty bad anxiety so I'm taking zanax and Relistor 3 in the morning for the constipation from pain meds lyrics ambien ... Been on these meds for a while but never had this constant pressure and pain,,,,, It's like a constant Charlie horse where my sphincters are all day....I'm trying meditation and other stuff but I think I damaged on of my sphincters from straining so many times in years past,,,,,If anyone has suffered this please contact me.... God bless all the people on here as we have problems that we rarely get answers too,,,,, I haven't gotten any for ten years through 14 surgeries and procedures including having my tailbone remover in 2014...Thanks so much, Al

I've had pelvic floor dysfunction for two years and I decided to stay away from procedures even though I was desperate sometimes... I decided to do conservative treatment for two years as in headache in the pelvis book... they said it takes 2+ low dose gabapentin and low dose muscle relaxer.... Also a year and a half of pelvic pt.... I also did the pathways free app.... Diaphragmatic breathing and stretching which my pelvic PT showed me... I also had some valium lidocaine suppositories because mine was mainly rectal and it still flares up now and again but it's a lot better... I also think mine was from straining because of constipation over many years and I do think I had a fissure and hemorrhoids but now I do 10 billion probiotics everyday and I do the applesauce and oat bran and lots of water seems to be a lot better... But also everyone is different and have different areas that are painful.... Oh I forgot I also would sit on a tennis ball if it got too tight and that seemed to release things

You need to see a Pelvic Floor specialist & get internal therapy, sounds like yours is in a spasm & won’t release/relax.
