It is common in clinical practice that patients are afraid of defecation due to fear of pain, resulting in a vicious cycle of "fear of pain - holding back defecation - dry stool - more pain". The bleeding caused by anal fissures can be more or less depending on the degree of blood vessel tearing. It is common to see anemia due to long-term or heavy bleeding from anal fissures. If anal fissure is not accompanied by external hemorrhoids, anal canal stenosis, anal papilloma, etc., it can be cured through conservative treatment. If it is accompanied by these complications, surgery is required. There are many reasons for anal bleeding, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, rectal polyps, enteritis, and even colorectal cancer. The specific diagnosis can only be confirmed through anorectal specialist examination.
