Reply to "Anal / Rectal / Talbone pain and don't know what to think"

You mentioned tailbone pain, this could be a pilonidal cyst, especially since you mention the pain when you are just sitting. Google that and see if it matches your symptoms. 

Hemorrhoids and fissures are another possible cause for your symptoms. Fissures are  very often described as a sensation of "passing shards of glass" with BMs, to give you an idea of what you might be experiencing. Hemorrhoids will often feel like a swelling or a bump and can protrude from the anus.

Something else to consider, I had anal pain with some bleeding. Turned out to be a hypertrophied anal papillae. They can occur alone due to chronic diarrhea or straining, or in association with fissures. I actually just had it removed this week and while I'm a little sore from the procedure, it doesn't compare to the pain from the papilla.  I had no idea these existed until I had one.  I thought I had a hemorrhoid but it turned out to be the papilla. That is something else you should Google and see if the symptoms sound similar to your own.
