Anal Fissures

Anal fissures are small tears in the lining of the anus, often causing pain and bleeding during bowel movements. While they typically heal on their own, certain measures can aid faster recovery.

Causes:

  • Hard stools or chronic constipation.
  • Straining during childbirth or bowel movements.
  • Severe or prolonged diarrhea.
  • Rare causes: Anal cancer, HIV, tuberculosis (TB), or herpes.

Symptoms:

  • Sharp pain during or after bowel movements.
  • Visible tear or crack near the anus.
  • Small skin lump near the fissure.
  • Blood spots on stool or toilet paper.

Treatment:

  • Stool Softeners: Ease bowel movements and reduce strain.
  • High-Fiber Diet: Prevents constipation and promotes healing.
  • Warm Sitz Baths: Relaxes anal muscles and improves blood flow for faster recovery.
  • If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
