Fissure Treatment
An anal fissure is a small tear in the skin lining the anus, which can cause sharp pain, burning, and bleeding during bowel movements. At Sarthi Care, we offer modern fissurectomy and laser-based procedures for quick and permanent relief.
Fissurectomy involves the surgical removal of the damaged anal tissue to allow healthy healing. In most cases, it’s combined with a lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) to reduce muscle tension and prevent recurrence. We also offer laser sphincterotomy for minimal pain and faster healing.
Patients typically recover within 1–2 weeks. Most return to normal activities in 2–3 days. With laser techniques, recovery is even faster and more comfortable.
Fissurectomy provides over 95% success rate in chronic or non-healing fissures. It helps eliminate pain, reduce recurrence, and restore comfort during bowel movements.
You may be a candidate for surgery if:
You’ve had fissure symptoms for over 6 weeks
Medications and dietary changes haven’t worked
You experience frequent pain or bleeding
Permanent relief from fissure pain
Minimally invasive laser option available
No stitches, no cuts (in laser method)

An anal fissure is a small tear or cut in the lining of the anal canal, often caused by passing hard or large stools. It can lead to pain, bleeding, and discomfort during or after bowel movements.
Common symptoms include:
Sharp pain during or after passing stool
Bright red blood on the toilet paper or in the stool
Burning or itching sensation
A visible crack near the anal opening
Muscle spasms or tightness in the anal area
Causes may include:
Constipation and straining
Passing hard or dry stools
Chronic diarrhea
Inflammatory bowel diseases (e.g., Crohn’s disease)
Childbirth-related trauma
Low-fiber diet or dehydration
While not life-threatening, fissures can become chronic and very painful if not treated properly. In some cases, they may indicate an underlying health condition like Crohn’s disease.
Our specialist doctors at SarthiCare perform a physical examination and may use an anoscope to visualize the tear and rule out other conditions like piles or fistula.
We offer:
Medical management: Stool softeners, topical creams, pain relief
