Try to modify your lifestyle and food habits so that you might feel easy while defecation and along with that I advise sitz bath and laxative support so that your fissure might heal.if if there is no response kindly go for a physical consultation

In anal fissure generally we avoid checking with finger
Just looking at anal are fissure is seen
If you are having pain while passing stools first try conservative with
1.green leafy vegetables,
2. Plenty of water,
3. Avoiding non veg for few days till u pass soft stools
4. You can use syrup lactulose at bed with plenty of water for soft stools,
5.finally sitz bath using dettol liquid with lukewarm water
It means you have to sit in small tub for 15 min two times daily will help
Health Tips
if not resolving consult doctor
most of the times I will be resolved with conservative management if it is fissure
