- Anal cracks - one of the mostwidespread proctological diseases, which is a rupture or injury to the mucous membrane of the pussy at the edge of the anus. Most often it is formed against the background of diarrhea, constipation and a "sedentary" way of life. Anal fissures often heal independently, for this it is necessary to normalize the stool and adjust the lifestyle. However, it also happens that this disease can go into a chronic form. Permanent prolonged trauma of already existing defects by the calves provokes their inflammation, the appearance of burning and itching, as well as severe pain in the area of the anus. Blood from the anus can be of a very different kind - from traces on the linen to the flowing blood during or after defecation. It is also possible to isolate blood clots together with calves, the appearance of traces of blood on the underwear for no apparent reason, or during physical exercises.
