Fissure
An anal fissure is a small tear or cut in the lining of the anus, often causing severe pain and bleeding during bowel movements. This condition can be extremely uncomfortable and is usually caused by passing large or hard stools, chronic diarrhea, or inflammation. Other contributing factors include childbirth and conditions that cause frequent straining during bowel movements. At Day and Night Hospital, we provide comprehensive care for anal fissures, focusing on relieving pain, promoting healing, and preventing recurrence.
Initial treatment for anal fissures typically involves conservative measures. Increasing dietary fiber, drinking plenty of water, and taking stool softeners can help reduce straining and allow the fissure to heal naturally.
Warm sitz baths and over-the-counter creams or ointments can also provide relief by soothing the affected area and reducing inflammation. In cases where conservative treatments are not effective, more advanced interventions may be necessary.
For persistent or severe fissures, our experienced team, led by Dr. Vanajakshi Jami, offers advanced treatments such as laser surgery. Laser surgery is a minimally invasive option that uses focused laser beams to precisely target and treat the fissure. This method reduces pain, minimizes bleeding, and promotes faster healing compared to traditional surgical techniques. By choosing laser surgery, patients benefit from a quicker recovery and reduced risk of complications.
