What Causes Anal Opening Pain While Passing Pink/red Tissue In Stools?
I have been passing stool with a fair amount of pain eminating from the left side of my anal opening. The pain radiates up in to my anus as well, and doesn t stop. I also am periodically passing what appear to be chunks of pink/red tissue with every other or so bowel movement. What s going on?

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to an anal fissure.
I recommend avoiding constipation by using stool softeners.
I also recommend drinking a lot of liquids.
If the pain continues I recommend seeing a proctologist for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
