Laser Sphincterotomy for Anal Fissure
Advanced & Less Painful Treatment for Chronic Fissure
If you are suffering from severe pain during motion, burning sensation, or bleeding due to an anal fissure, and medicines are not helping, Laser Sphincterotomy may be a safe and effective treatment option.
It is a modern procedure designed to reduce pain and promote faster healing.
What is an Anal Fissure?
An anal fissure is a small tear in the lining of the anus. It usually causes:
- Sharp pain during and after motion
- Burning sensation
- Bleeding while passing stool
- Fear of passing stool due to pain
Most fissures heal with medicines, but chronic fissures may require surgery.
What is Laser Sphincterotomy?
In this procedure:
- A laser is used to gently release tight anal muscles
- This reduces pressure in the area
- Improves blood flow
- Helps the fissure heal naturally
It is a minimally invasive technique with less tissue damage.
Who Needs Laser Sphincterotomy?
This procedure is recommended if:
- Pain persists for several weeks
- Medicines and creams are not working

A proper examination confirms the need for surgery.
