Anal Fissures

What are Anal Fissures?

An anal fissure is a rip in the anal canal’s lining, causing discomfort and rectal bleeding, especially during bowel movements. These fissures often result from anal trauma, usually associated with the strain of passing hard stools. Anal fissures are prevalent in various age groups, with about half of individuals experiencing them before the age of 40. Seeking medical attention is advisable for effective management and timely healing.
