Hello doctor,
My mother has anal itching for about half a year accompanied by pain in the tailbone, often passing blood in the stool even though she eats enough vegetables and does not eat hot food, sometimes there is a feeling of falling behind the anus. 1 month ago, my mother went to the doctor, was diagnosed with anal fissure and was treated with surgical measures but there were no signs of improvement, still very painful and itchy, went back to the doctor and said the problem was normal. It's been about a week after surgery but now it's been 3 weeks and it still hasn't healed. So the doctor told me how to treat anal fissures and anal itching? Thank you doctor.

Hello,
With the question “How is anal fissure, anal itching treated? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
You should take your mother to an anorectal specialist to assess the healing process. In addition to surgical treatment, anal fissures need to be combined with more diet and activities, eat lots of vegetables, drink enough water, and avoid constipation. After surgery, you should soak the anus after each bowel movement.
If you still have questions about anal fissures, you can take your mother to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
