Causes
A slight tear in the thin, moist tissue (mucosa) that lines the anus causes fissure. fissures are very common in children, but they can happen to anyone at any age.

Symptoms
During bowel movements, there is pain, which can be very intense.
During a bowel movement, there is bright red blood on the stool or toilet paper.
Around the anus, there is a noticeable break in the tissue.
Around the anal fissure, a tiny lump or skin tag appears on the skin.
Anal fissure treatment
Nonsurgical treatments:

The purpose of anal fissure treatment is to relieve pain and bleeding by softening stools and lowering pressure on the anal canal. Conservative therapies, which may include one or more of the following, are first tried:

Using stool softeners, consuming more water while avoiding caffeine-containing items (which induce dehydration), and making dietary changes (increased consumption of high fibre foods and fibre supplements) to prevent constipation.
To further relax the anal muscles, soak in a warm bath (also known as a sitz bath) for 10 to 20 minutes several times a day.
Avoid squeezing or sitting on the toilet for long periods of time.

Surgery:

Surgery is needed if you have a chronic anal fissure that is resistant to previous therapies or if your symptoms are severe. Doctors commonly perform a lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) operation, which includes cutting a small piece of the anal sphincter muscle to relieve spasm and improve recovery.

According to studies, surgery is far more beneficial than any other medical treatment for chronic fissures. Surgery, on the other hand, has a slight chance of inducing incontinence.
