Fissures
Anal fissures are small tears in the lining of the anus, often caused by trauma during bowel movements or conditions such as constipation or diarrhea. These fissures can result in pain, bleeding, itching, and discomfort, making everyday activities like sitting and passing stool challenging. While anal fissures can be a source of significant discomfort, they are generally treatable with conservative measures or, in some cases, medical interventions.
At Manohari Super Speciality Hospital Urology & IVF Centre, our team of experienced colorectal specialists, led by Dr. Munikrishna. S, specializes in the diagnosis and management of anal fissures. Through thorough evaluations, including physical examinations and, if necessary, anoscopy or colonoscopy, we strive to accurately diagnose the condition and develop personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs.
Treatment for anal fissures typically involves conservative measures aimed at relieving symptoms and promoting healing. This may include dietary modifications to soften stool, increased fluid intake, topical medications to reduce pain and inflammation, and lifestyle changes to promote regular bowel movements. In cases where conservative treatments are ineffective, medical interventions such as botulinum toxin injections or surgical procedures like lateral internal sphincterotomy may be recommended to promote healing and alleviate symptoms.
