Anal Fissure Surgery

An anal fissure is a small tear or crack in the lining of the anus, the opening through which stool exits the body. This condition can cause significant discomfort and pain, particularly during or after bowel movements. Key aspects of anal fissures include:

Symptoms:

• Pain: Sharp, severe pain during or after bowel movements, often described as burning or tearing.
• Bleeding: Bright red blood on the stool or on toilet paper after a bowel movement.
• Itching: Itching or irritation around the anus.
• Discharge: Sometimes a small amount of mucus discharge from the fissure.

Causes:

• Constipation: Straining to pass hard or large stools can stretch and tear the anal lining.
• Diarrhea: Frequent, loose stools can irritate and damage the anal area.
• Childbirth: Trauma from vaginal delivery can sometimes cause anal fissures.

Anal fissures can be quite painful, but they are usually treatable with proper care and medical management. If symptoms persist or worsen, consulting a healthcare provider is important for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
