An Anal Fissure is a small cut or tear in the lining of the anus. The crack in the skin causes severe pain and some bright red bleeding during and after bowel movements. At times, the fissure can be deep enough to expose the muscle tissue underneath.
An anal fissure usually is not a serious condition. It can affect people of all ages, and it is often seen in infants and young children since constipation is a common problem in these age groups.
In most cases, the tear heals on its own within four to six weeks. In cases where the fissure persists beyond eight weeks, it is considered chronic.
Certain treatments can promote healing and help relieve discomfort, including stool softeners and topical pain relievers.
