How to treat anal fissure

With the accelerated pace of life, many patients suffer from anal diseases. I believe that this disease is extremely painful for patients. Anal fissure is a common anal disease. Treatment in daily life is also critical. Many patients are more concerned about how to treat anal fissure. The treatment of anal fissure should not be rushed because it is a common chronic disease and is prone to recurrence in many cases. So be sure to treat it properly.

Anal fissure is a common disease, which is mainly characterized by cracks in the skin of the anus. It is also a common manifestation of some middle-aged people in daily life. It will heal itself quickly. In daily life, the main place of onset is the anal canal.

1. Keep bowel movements smooth by taking oral laxatives to make stools soft and lubricated, increase intake of high-fiber foods and change bowel habits to gradually correct the occurrence of constipation.

2. Local sitz bath: Use 1:5000 warm potassium permanganate solution for sitz bath before and after defecation to keep the local area clean.

3. Anal canal dilation is suitable for patients with acute or chronic anal fissures without concurrent papillary hypertrophy and sentinel hemorrhoids. The advantages are that it is easy to operate, does not require special equipment, has a rapid effect, and only requires a daily sitz bath after the operation.

Method: After local anesthesia, the patient takes the side-lying position and first uses the two index fingers to forcefully dilate the anal canal, then gradually inserts the two middle fingers and maintains the dilation for 5 minutes (Figure 5). Men should expand forward and backward to avoid contact between fingers and ischial tuberosity, which would affect expansion. Women have a wider pelvis and do not have this problem. After the anal canal is dilated, the spasm of the anal sphincter can be eliminated, so the pain can be relieved immediately after the operation. After dilation, the anal fissure wound expands and opens, drainage is unobstructed, and the superficial wound can heal quickly. However, the disadvantage of this method is that it may cause complications such as bleeding, perianal abscess, hemorrhoidal prolapse and short-term fecal incontinence, and the recurrence rate is relatively high.

The above is how to treat anal fissure. The phenomenon of anal fissure and crack is mainly caused by some enteritis or diseases. The main clinical manifestation is pain during defecation. Other types of stimulation can also cause such diseases. Therefore, the use of medication is also critical. At the same time, you must not eat spicy and irritating foods in your diet.
