A member asked:
Hi i had anal fissures almost two years ago im pretty sure they are healed. but everytime i strain blood comes but very little sometimes light pink?

Recurrence common: Small anal fissures are common and recur when a person allows their stools to become bulky or hard. They generally self heal but can reopen. Making sure you empty at least daily & that your stools are soft reduces this problem. A water retaining product like Miralax along with regular emptying is often helpful for most.
