Older adults are also prone to anal fissures due to decreased blood flow in the anorectal area. Women who are pregnant or have recently given birth are at higher risk for anal fissures due to straining during delivery.<\/p><p>People with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), such as Crohn\u2019s disease, have an increased risk of developing anal fissures. The inflammation in the intestinal lining makes the tissue around the anus tear more easily.<\/p><p>People who frequently constipate have a higher risk of anal fissures as well. Passing large, hard stools and straining during bowel movements are the most common causes of anal fissures.<\/p><p>Occasionally, a sexually transmitted infection such as herpes or syphilis can infect and damage the anal canal.
