Based on your symptoms — severe burning pain after passing stool, bleeding, and pain lasting for hours — this is more suggestive of an anal fissure rather than just a simple skin tag or hemorrhoid.
A skin tag around the anus is often a sentinel tag, which commonly develops with a chronic fissure.
Important:
* Do not rely only on self-diagnosis or OTC/Ayurvedic meds without evaluation
* If symptoms persist >1–2 weeks, you should consult a surgeon for proper examination
* Chronic fissures may require advanced treatment (laser or minor surgery)
Most cases improve with proper treatment — but correct diagnosis is key.
Next Steps
Avoid constipation: Take a high-fiber diet (fruits, vegetables, plenty of water)
* Stool softeners (if needed)
* Warm sitz baths (10–15 minutes, 2–3 times daily)
* Topical medications (like anesthetic + muscle relaxant creams prescribed by a doctor)
Health Tips
If bleeding increases, severe pain continues, or swelling increases → get evaluated early
