An anal fissure is a small tear in the thin, moist tissue that lines the anus. Common causes of anal fissure include:
(Monday – Friday: 16:30 – 19:30)
- Passing large or hard stools
- Constipation and straining during bowel movements
- Chronic diarrhea
- Anal intercourse
- Childbirth
Less common causes of anal fissures include:
- Crohn’s disease or another inflammatory bowel disease
- Anal cancer
- HIV
- Tuberculosis
- Syphilis
Factors that may increase your risk of developing an anal fissure include:
- Constipation. Straining during bowel movements and passing hard stools increase the risk of tearing.
- Childbirth. Anal fissures are more common in women after they give birth.
- Crohn’s disease. This inflammatory bowel disease causes chronic inflammation of the intestinal tract, which may make the lining of the anal canal more vulnerable to tearing.
- Anal intercourse.
- Age. Anal fissures can occur at any age, but are more common in infants and middle-aged adults.
