Based on your description:
Most likely cause:
Anal fissure (small tear in anal skin due to hard stool) — very common, especially with dehydration or low fiber intake.
What you can do now:
Increase water intake (2–3 liters/day)
Eat high-fiber foods (fruits, vegetables, oats, pulses)
Consider stool softeners / mild laxatives like Cremaffin or lactulose
Warm sitz baths 2–3 times/day to relieve pain
Avoid straining during bowel movements
Keep the area clean and dry
See a doctor urgently if:
Bleeding increases or becomes bright red in large quantity
Fever, abdominal pain, or black/tarry stools
Pain persists more than a few days
Most anal fissures heal within 1–2 weeks with proper care.
For proper evaluation and prescription guidance, text me on Practo.
