What is an Anal Fissure?

An Anal Fissure (Fissure-in-Ano) is a tear in the anal canal, common in all ages, including infants. It usually occurs at the back of the anus along the buttock cleft.

  • Constipation & Hard Stools – Excessive straining
  • Diarrhea – Frequent bowel movements causing trauma
  • Childbirth & Pregnancy – Pressure on anal muscles
