New term, new teacher, new year. its making my boy ill.

Since the return to school my 7year old son is struggling. Early hours Thurs night he was in extreme pain with rectum spasms, this lasted 3.5 hrs. He could'nt go to school fri. Over the weekend we have caught two episodes of the spasms early, gave him his anti-spasm med, lots of cuddles and reassurance. 

I am dreading school for him tomo. I am feeling so helpfless Frown

  • Could he have proctalgia fugax?

    I have had periodic rectal spasms since I was about 10 years old. They tend to occur prior to menstruation, but can occur at other times, with no warning. The pain in the bum is excruciating while it lasts, but is gone after 10 seconds or so. I can go for months without a bout, but other times they occur more frequently.

    The spasms are usually caused by anxiety.
