Abdominal pain and a sensation of rectal fullness may be caused by enteritis and proctitis. If not treated promptly, it could develop into a perianal abscess, necessitating immediate surgical intervention at a hospital. Alternatively, the symptoms might stem from ureteral irritation due to urinary tract stones, which is typically accompanied by pain around the anus, frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, hematuria, and other related manifestations.
