Can IBS cause pain after bowel movements?

With IBS, your pain should actually improve after bowel movements.
After difficult BM, there can be perianal pain. Detailed description of pain will give better idea of the cause.
Yes, it can, but more often, pain tends to get better after a bowel movement in IBS.
