Complete Guide to Understanding and Treating Anal Fissures
A Fissure is described as A Cause of Painful Morning. An anal fissure is a break or tear in the skin of the anal canal.
Anal fissures may be noticed by bright red bleeding on toilet paper sometimes in the toilet bowl.
They usually cause pain after defecation (after a bowel movement). With chronic cases, the pain intensity is often less.
Most common cause. Straining to pass hard stools stretches and tears the anal mucosa.
Frequent loose stools can irritate and erode the anal lining, leading to fissures.
Vaginal delivery can cause trauma to the anal area, especially with large babies or forceps use.
Can cause trauma and tears in the anal mucosa.
Conditions like Crohn's disease can cause anal fissures due to inflammation.
Injection of botulinum toxin to relax the anal sphincter muscles, reducing spasm and promoting healing.
Topical medication that helps relax the anal sphincter and improve blood flow to the area.
Creams that help relax the anal sphincter muscles and promote healing.
Surgical cutting of a small portion of the internal anal sphincter to reduce pressure and promote healing.
Surgical removal of the fissure and any associated scar tissue or sentinel tags.
Surgical procedure where healthy tissue is advanced to cover the fissure site.
Untreated acute fissures can become chronic, leading to persistent pain, scarring, and difficulty healing.
Open wounds can become infected, causing abscesses, cellulitis, or systemic infection.
Chronic fissures can lead to abnormal connections between the anal canal and surrounding tissues.
Scarring can cause narrowing of the anal canal, making bowel movements difficult and painful.
Chronic pain and fear of bowel movements can lead to anxiety, depression, and avoidance of social activities.
Fact: While more common in adults, anal fissures can occur in children due to constipation or diarrhea.
Fact: Most acute fissures heal with conservative treatment. Surgery is typically reserved for chronic cases.
Fact: Fissures are not contagious and cannot be transmitted from person to person.
Fact: Sitz baths are actually recommended to promote healing and reduce pain.
