What Is an Anal Fissure?
If you see blood in your stool (poo), or have pain and discomfort in your bottom, you might have an anal fissure.
An anal fissure is a small tear or split in the skin that lines the anus.
Your anus is the hole in your bottom through which faeces (poo) leaves your body.
Anal fissures are very common. They can occur in people of all ages and genders.
An anal fissure can be very uncomfortable, but it will usually heal if you make some changes to your diet and follow some simple treatments. If the split doesn’t heal properly, it causes a small ulcer to form.
