Swollen anal, lil blood while defecating
Hello,
I have rectum swelling from long time. Like after pregnancy I noticed it that it's not as usual and few people said it happens for few people and stays as it is...didn't show to doc as I never had any problem with it.
3days back while trying to pass hard stool felt like skin crack inside and irritation to clear the bowel moment.
Even now it feels the same, saw few blood drops while passing the stool. Later it always feels burning sensation and feeling of defecating again.
What could be done for this?
I am on supplements of Vit Cal and Iron for anaemia and other problems.
Thanks.

[ ] Hi, it seems you have developed fissure in ano. ( a cut in anal canal due to passage of hard stool). You need some good laxative to make stool soft do that it should not hurt the wounded area. Take isabgol husk in Luke warm water after dinner daily. You can try Triphala powder. There are certain ointment to relax the anal sphincter which helps in relieving pain and allows fissure to heal. Do sitz bath three times a day. Feel free to ask any further quary.
