It can cause sharp pain, especially when opening the bowels. Anal fissure is thought to be a common disorder for which many people do not seek medical advice. It can be easily confused with haemorrhoids (piles). ... Anal fissures occur most commonly in young adults. Anal fissure Frequently, no cause is found for an anal fissure. However, it is commonly linked to constipation, where straining on hard stools can tear the skin of the anus. The internal anal sphincter (see diagram, above) is thought to play a key role in the development of an anal fissure. This is one of two muscles that control the opening of the anus. Both muscles need to relax in order to pass a stool. Unlike the exterior anal sphincter, which can be tensed or relaxed voluntarily, there is no voluntary control of the internal sphincter. Because of the pain of a fissure, the internal anal sphincter may go into spasm - causing a raised pressure within the anus.

    Extractions: Print this page Anal fissures originally are a superficial tear in the tissue which lines the anal canal. This superficial tear may deepen and eventually reach the underlying tissues. These tissues are the internal sphincter. With exposure to chronic irritation, the internal sphincter's function may become compromised, Subsequently, sentinel tags, hypertrophied anal papilla and anal stenosis may occur. Most patients with anal fissures relate pain with evacuation, rectal bleeding, itching, swelling and anal discharge. History is usually sufficient for the initial diagnosis. Eventually, further evaluation with palpation (rectal exam) and an endoscopic evaluation are useful. The etiology of an anal fissure may be associated with constipation, diarrhea, rubber band ligation for hemorrhoids or injection of the anal area. Other diseases such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, syphilis, AIDS, neoplasms, tuberculosis, and Crohn's disease may also present as anal fissures. A gastrointestinal work-up for these diseases is based upon the patient's presentation and clinical history. Treatment of anal fissures is divided into medical and surgical groups. Medical treatment of acute fissures is based upon topical creams, sitz baths, perirectal hygiene and dietary changes consisting of increasing fiber content.

Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Anal fissures are extremely common in young infants but may occur at any age. Studies suggest 80% of infants will have had an anal fissure by the end of the first year. Most fissures heal on their own and do not require treatment, aside from good diaper hygiene. However, some fissures may require medical treatment. The incidence of anal fissures decreases rapidly with age. Fissures are much less common among school-aged children than among infants. In adults, fissures may be caused by constipation , the passing of large, hard stools, or by prolonged diarrhea. In older adults, anal fissures may be caused by decreased blood flow to the area.

    Extractions: Most anal fissures can be treated successfully with conservative measures, which include stool softeners and warm soaks. The goal is to relax the anal sphincter, which allows the fissure to heal. If these methods are ineffective, surgery is necessary. This is called an internal sphincterotomy, a procedure in which the anal sphincter is partially cut, thus allowing it to relax and permitting the fissure to heal. Review Date: 07/20/01

    Extractions: Home A-Z About us News ... Cambridge Colorectal Unit What is an anal fissure? An anal fissure is a split in the skin at the opening of the anus, which leaves exposed some of the muscle fibres of the anal canal. Pain results from the recurrent opening of the wound when the bowels are opened, and it is often accompanied by bleeding. In addition, the inner circle of muscle in the anal canal (called the internal sphincter) goes into spasm: this makes the pain worse and can prevent healing.
