acute anal fissures can be treated with conservative management .for any Fissure initially we can try managing with conservative management. if there is no proper healing or symptoms worsen we can go for surgery.
Whether surgery is required or not, can only be confirmed after clinical examination of the patient.
No one can advise about surgery without doing per-rectal examination.
Next Steps
Consult a General Surgeon or Proctologist for clinical examination and assessment.
