Fissure

When the skin of the anus is cut or damaged, it is called anal fissure. This is exactly what happens when your dry lips gnaw. Fissures usually bleed and cause pain, so they are often confused with hemorrhoids. This usually puts tension on the anus when the anal muscles stretch too far. It can occur in people who suffer from constipation or chronic diarrhea.

This also happens to elderly patients due to decreased blood flow to the anal area. It is not uncommon for women to have anal problems after childbirth. And it can happen in people who have Crohn's disease.

In more severe cases of anal fissure, an external lump will form on the anus. These are the sentinel piles of chronic fissures. The problem of anal fissures can be solved with medicine or surgery.
