HI, I have read your query & understood your concern. The cracking of anus is fissure & is out come of the constipation ..common in pregnancy. From the description it seems to be infected fissure. You need to consult your treating doctor for advise of medicines for the infection ( antibiotic/ anti inflammatory pills with mild laxatives to soften stools & local ointment for healing of the fissure are usually given ) Apart from this you need to have few life style changes- - Schlitz's bath twice a day to foment the area ,followed by application of ointment. -have small, frequent servings of food with fruits & vegetables ( fibers). - Drink lot of water ( 12 glasses in a day ) - regular exercises to facilitate digestion & healing. Thanks.
