An anal fissure is a small tear in the skin around the anus. This can lead to pain, bleeding, and discomfort when you have a bowel movement or afterward. Even though it’s a small injury, the area is very delicate, which makes it quite painful.

Medicare Multispecialty Hospital provides skilled and caring treatment for patients with anal fissures. This is a common and painful issue caused by a small tear in the skin around the anus. Our team of skilled colorectal doctors offers detailed assessments and personalized treatment plans tailored to the seriousness of the fissure. The first step in treatment usually involves advice on diet using stool softeners applying creams or ointments and taking sitz baths to ease pain and help with healing. For long-lasting or stubborn fissures, we provide advanced surgical treatments like lateral internal sphincterotomy. This is a safe and effective procedure that helps lower pressure and encourages healing over time. We focus on our patients and use modern equipment to help them recover quickly, feel better for a long time, and improve their overall quality of life.
