OK, is this like a tense pain around your anus? This could be a condition called proctalgia fugax. I get this from time to time and it can be very uncomfortable. I find the best thing to do is lie down quietly and try to relax. Start thinking about letting your feet and legs go floppy then work up your body concentrating gently on each part of your body to let it go floppy. May take about 20 minutes to pass - mind you don't drop off to sleep - or maybe that would be fine!
Here's a link in case you think I'm kidding.

ok, wait, your bum hurts? not your stomach? if you have pressure in your bum, it is probably constipation. or a hemmroid from constipation. take some milk of magnesia and drink lots of water. if your stomach hurts, it could be gas. think back, is there anything specific you ate that could have caused this?

poor bum.......let the gas out!

Gas X? Enema?

Can you be more specific? If you have cramps in your abdomen or pelvic region it could be gas or constipation, or even mentstrual pain. How long has it been hurting? Does it hurt to use the bathroom? Have you injured your bum in any way? I seriously hurt my back (slipped disc) and my bum hurt for days, my hips burned and ached and so did my tail bone. Can you be more specific? I'll check back in a bit.

ADDED: Ok, you're right side? Is this upper or lower abdomen. I say this because people consider their whole abdomen at their "stomach". If it's below and to the right of your belly button it could be appendicitis which can be serious and needs immediate attention. If it's to the right of your stomach and around the bottom of your rib cage it could be stomach, gall bladder or liver problems. The pain in your bum radiating to your thighs sounds like the problem I'm having with my back. I haven't had an injury either but somehow I hurt my back. You can have a slipped disc for a long time and then one day you could reach for a cup out of the cabinet and it start hurting. And my bum and legs have been hurting all week. Now the Crohn's disease can cause both but it's probably just gas or indigestion causing your stomach pain. You should get both of these checked out though. I hope this helps. I'm not a doctor but I've been through it all with my health and I've taken lots of medical classes. Good luck hun!

oh boy does that sound like a hemorrhoid

get some hemorrhoid cream and take an Ibuprofen for swelling

take a really warm tubby and start eating lots of fiber.

take an ex lax or something so you don't have to push so hard!

Mabye you should take those anal beads out
