Do Anal Fissures Aggravate During Menstrual Cycle?
I have developed anal fissures which cause much pain and burning. In such a situation I got my my period 2 days ago and felt that the pain and discomfort from the fissures got worse during period. Just want to know if anal fissures get aggravated by menstrual cycle.

Hello,
Anal fissure does not have any relation to menstrual cycle and it won’t aggravate during periods. As a first line management you can apply the Nifecaine cream for symptomatic relief. If the fissure causing severe pain you can consult a general surgeon and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
