If part of your rectum came out, you need a doctor immediately. That's called "pink sleeve" and is a type of prolapse. You also need to push less hard when you defecate, and to eat more fiber-rich foods and drink plenty of water.
It hurts to defecate because your anus and your uterus are very close so the cramping pain from your uterus is going to your anus. Try drinking a lot of water and eating softer foods to soften stool.
The primary muscles that function to hold in stool are the internal and external anal sphincters. The internal sphincter is a completely involuntary organ, and as stool passes through this sphincter, the muscle slowly relaxes. The stool then contacts the external sphincter, which is a completely voluntary organ. At this point, we sense that there is an increased pressure in our rectum, and we likely feel the need to defecate. If a toilet or other commode is close by, we sit down and voluntarily relax our external anal sphincter, and the stool passes through. If, however, we would rather not have a bowel movement at that moment, we voluntarily tighten our external anal sphincter, and the stool is retained in the rectum.
The word is defecate.
To defecate is to pass out stool. It is the body's natural way of taking out the excess waste from the digestive system.

Some will defecate with every feed - 8 to 10 times daily. Some will defecate every 2-3 days. If the baby seems bloated and has to strain on the stool or it seems uncomfortable passing it or seems to have an upset stomach then it may be constipated. If the baby seems comfortable and passes the stool easily then even once every 2-3 days is OK.
