Anal fissures: Anal fissures are a tear, that scars and reopens with the passage of stool. After two years of non-healing, you should check in with your doc. If your constipation is under control, you may benefit from a surgical consult and procedure.

i have these white bumps at the edge of my anus and i really dont know where they came from but they hurt sometimes. what can i do to get rid of them?

Accepted Answer

More info needed: Maybe nothing is wrong. Normal anal papillae can appear whitish, but no pain unless infected. Anal warts may be possible; they are most common in men who have had receptive anal sex with other men, but not rare in heterosexual men. If sexually exposed, maybe other STDs? Without more information, it isn't possible to say anything more. See a doctor, and be honest if any possible sexual risks.
