Learn More »Rectal tenesmus, or tenesmus, is a feeling of being unable to empty the large bowel, even if there is no remaining stool to expel. Several medical conditions can cause tenesmus. These include inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), colorectal cancer, and disorders that affect how the muscles move food through the gut. It can be painful, especially if it presents with cramping or other digestive symptoms. The symptoms can come and go, or they may persist in the long term. Vesical tenesmus is a separate condition that relates to the bladder. A person will feel as though they are unable to empty the bladder, even when there is no urine present. In this article, we discuss the different types and symptoms of tenesmus and the treatment options. Definition Share on Pinterest Sergio Murria/Stocksy Tenesmus refers to a persistent and painful desire to evacuate the bowel, despite having an empty colon. It often involves cramping, involuntary straining, and the passage of little fecal matter. The sensation is not a condition in itself but a symptom of other health issues that can affect the gastrointestinal system. These issues may include inflammatory conditions of the bowel or motility disorders that may affect the normal movements of the intestines. Types Although the term tenesmus usually refers to rectal tenesmus, some people may also use the term vesical tenesmus. This instead describes the feeling of incomplete bladder emptying after passing urine. Similar to rectal tenesmus, vesical tenesmus is a potential symptom of conditions that affect the bladder. Symptoms Rectal tenesmus, which refers to the frequent urge to have a bowel movement, is a symptom in itself. People may also experience other symptoms alongside it, including: abdominal and rectal pain
