Dr. Cheng Yicheng
Anal fissure refers to a tear in the skin near the anus, primarily characterized by pain. This pain is cyclical, usually caused by stool irritating the damaged mucosa during defecation, leading to pain that subsides after bowel movement but recurs due to contraction of the internal anal sphincter. Patients with anal fissures experience cyclical pain associated with defecation, which is the main clinical manifestation of this condition.
