Anal fissure with infection may cause symptoms such as perianal stabbing pain, itching, dizziness, and others. When an anal fissure occurs, there is a vertical tear in the anal canal and surrounding skin, allowing bacteria and other pathogens to enter the body. This leads to infection, swelling, and pain around the anus, along with systemic symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and dizziness. Once signs of infection appear, prompt treatment is necessary, as inflammation caused by infection can impair the healing of the anal fissure.
