An anal fissure is a small tear or crack in the lining of the anus, typically causing sharp pain and discomfort, especially during or after bowel movements. Common symptoms include bright red bleeding, itching, and a visible tear in the anal skin. Causes often involve passing hard or large stools, chronic diarrhea, childbirth, or anal trauma.
