Understanding Anal Fissures

An anal fissure is a small tear in the thin, moist tissue (mucosa) lining the anus. It typically causes severe pain during bowel movements and can create a cycle of fear and avoidance that worsens constipation.

The pain occurs because the anal sphincter muscle goes into spasm, reducing blood flow and preventing natural healing. This is why chronic fissures often require treatment to break the cycle.

Common Symptoms:

  • Sharp, severe pain during bowel movements
  • Pain lasting hours after passing stool
  • Bright red blood on stool or toilet paper
  • Visible crack or tear in anal skin

Frequently Asked Questions

Acute fissures (less than 6 weeks old) often heal with conservative treatment — sitz baths, dietary changes, and topical medications. Chronic fissures that don't respond to medication may require surgical intervention to break the pain-spasm cycle.

An anal fissure is a small tear in the lining of the anal canal. It causes severe pain during and after bowel movements, often with bright red bleeding.

Common causes include passing hard stools, chronic constipation, diarrhea, childbirth, and inflammatory bowel disease. High anal sphincter pressure prevents healing.

Most patients experience significant pain relief immediately after surgery. Complete healing typically occurs within 4-6 weeks.
