Anal fissures no fun: Anal fissures are like paper-cuts in the anus. They can bleed, hurt, &amp; recur, particularly with defecation &amp; any other activity that increases pelvic pressure. Disorders of anal-rectal function, straining at hard stool, prolonged sitting, heavy lifting, long distance walks/runs are causative &amp; should be addressed.
