A member asked:

Anal first time hurts to sit, poop, and bleeds a little. what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely small tear: Anal fissure is the likely cause-sitz baths, topical numbing creams (otc) and stool softeners, gentle wiping to avoid further trauma are a must. Should heal in a week or so, if not, see your doc who can often provide further help with better meds.
