An anal fissure is a small tear that lines the anus. Common causes of an anal fissure include constipation and straining or passing hard or large stools during bowel movements.

Anal fissures can affect people of any age. Most anal fissures get better with simple treatments, such as increased fiber intake or soaking in a warm-water bath.
