Understanding Fissure

A fissure, or anal fissure, is defined as a linear tear in the skin which can result in discomfort or excruciating pain while passing stool which occurs due to defecating or due to chronic constipation. This is usually a common occurrence and can be noticed in individuals of all ages but it is most frequently due to excessive straining during defecation. While fissures may not pose a threat to life, they can develop chronicity and eventually lead to severe pain or other complications if not treated early. The good news is, that with the help of required care, fissures can be effectively treated.

Symptoms of Fissure

Prompt recognition of fissure symptoms is mandatory to avert the risks of complications. Here are six common symptoms:

Pain on defecation

Perhaps the most common symptom of a fissure is a very sharp, excruciating pain during excretion or after a bowel movement. This pain lasts only a few minutes but can last for hours, making it uncomfortable to sit or move around.

Bright red blood in stool

It is not always uncommon to find bright red drops of blood in the stool, or bright red spots on the toilet paper after wiping your bottom. It happens due to the friction and tearing of the anal sphincter during the bowel movement which causes minimal bleeding.

Itching or irritation

Fissures may also cause some irritation in the anal region and this can be associated with inflammation in the region. Due to all of this, moving around the day becomes quite uncomfortable especially if this goes unnoticed.

A visible tear

In some instances, it is possible to observe the fissure as a round or oval opening in the skin around the anus. This is an obvious visual cue that you have an anal fissure.

Discomfort while sitting

Certain activities may become even excruciating, such as sitting down for prolonged times. Most of the patients complain that as they sit, their symptoms cause them an awful lot of discomfort.

Swelling or a small lump

Some patients myself included feel a lump in the fissure which has swollen slightly. This usually indicates a low-grade inflammation and in some cases diagnosis of chronic inflammatory fissure.
