Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The anal sphincter is like an elastic. It can be stretched and then it reduces in size on its own.
You need to share with me the details of your problem so that i can help you better.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
