Ayurveda Fissure Treatment

January 12, 2026

Overview

An anal fissure is a small tear in the lining of the anal canal, which can cause severe pain and bleeding, most often when passing stools or immediately afterwards. In Ayurveda, anal fissure is known as Parikartika (“Pari” = around; “Kartika” = cutting pain), which describes the piercing, cutting pain that one experiences during this condition. Anal fissures can affect people of any age group and are very common among those with anorectal disorders.

There are two main types:

Acute fissures: A recent, superficial tear of the lining of the anal canal, usually characterised by the sudden onset of pain, burning, and/or bleeding with that pain, during or after a bowel movement. Usually heal within 6 weeks. Conservative measures, such as stool softeners, warm sitz baths and dietary changes, are usually sufficient.

Chronic fissures: Symptoms are of long duration (Usually >6-8 weeks) and have not improved with topical creams or other treatments. Definitive signs include a skin tag (sentinel pile), hypertrophied anal papilla or muscle fibres seen at the base, and are generally treated with specialised care.

Ayurveda attributes fissures primarily to Mandagni (poor digestive fire), habitual straining during bowel movements, dehydration, and irregular lifestyle. A weakened digestive fire and poor elimination can cause dry, hard stools, which can injure the delicate anal mucosa, leading to a fissure.

Fissures can cause a range of symptoms. Some of the commonly seen symptoms include Sharp, burning pain during or after a bowel movement (may last for hours), bright red bleeding on toilet paper or in the stool, and local itching, burning, or discomfort.

Apollo AyurVAID employs an integrated, individualised, and protocol-driven approach (Precision Ayurveda), addressing the root causes of Fissures rather than merely treating their symptoms. An expert team of Ayurveda physicians conducts a comprehensive whole-person health assessment to develop a personalised protocol, which includes classical Ayurveda medications and therapies, as well as tailored diet and lifestyle modifications.

Ayurveda management of Fissures at Apollo AyurVAID focuses on preventing the recurrence of the disease, providing fast relief from pain and bleeding, promoting quick and complete healing of the fissure, preventing recurrence, and achieving a more comfortable quality of life.

Who Can Benefit and Who May Not: Ayurveda Treatment Scope in Fissure-in-Ano

Who Benefits from AyurVAID’s Treatment?

Individuals with acute fissures: Ayurveda helps by decreasing inflammation, healing the tear, and correcting other factors such as hard stools or poor digestion.
Individuals with chronic or recurring fissures: Ayurveda treatments help reduce anal muscle spasms, support healthy tissue regeneration, and improve blood flow without risking anal incontinence.
Patients with constipation-related fissures: Ayurveda addresses the root causes, such as low digestive fire (Agni Mandya), improper food combinations, or irregular bowel habits, that often contribute to recurring tears in the anal canal.
Individuals looking for a non-surgical option: Ayurveda offers a safe, non-invasive alternative for people who are hesitant about surgical interventions due to fear of pain, complications, or altered anal function.
Those seeking personalised care: Ayurveda considers each individual’s Prakriti (constitution), Vikriti (imbalances), diet, and lifestyle, making it especially effective for patients who need customised, whole-person care.
Women in the postpartum period: Ayurveda helps new mothers quickly heal from fissures with minimally invasive treatments.
Patients with comorbidities: Ayurveda offers treatments that safely heal fissures while also addressing comorbidities such as IBS, haemorrhoids, or metabolic issues (e.g., hypothyroid, diabetes).

Who May Not Benefit from Ayurveda Treatment?

Patients with fissures that appear to have advanced or complicated pathology that requires immediate surgical intervention.
Patients seeking a quick resolution through external applications.

What Anal Fissure Patients Can Expect from AyurVAID’s Approach

Anal fissure treatment at AyurVAID goes beyond just pain relief and targets the underlying causes of the problem to restore anorectal health for the long term. The goal is to heal the tear, prevent it from recurring, and also to develop healthy bowel habits using evidence-based Ayurveda treatment protocols. Patients with fissures experience the following specific benefits:

Faster Healing and Pain Relief: The topical application or infiltration of medicated oils helps reduce pain and inflammation, as well as sphincter spasm, while soothing the fissure to promote tissue healing.
Correction of Bowel Irregularities: Ayurveda addresses the underlying constipation or hard stools to regulate bowel movements without dependency.
Restoration of Tissue Strength and Function: Internal medicines and external therapies help restore normal sphincter tone and reduce spasms, making recurrence less likely and enhancing natural healing capacity.
Whole-Person Healing and Prevention: AyurVAID’s approach incorporates stress management, lifestyle correction, and comorbidity care, recognising the impact of emotional, dietary, and behavioural factors in fissure onset and recurrence.
Less Invasive and Drug-Free Recovery: Ayurveda supports recovery without dependency or major interventions.

Causative Factors (Nidanas) for Fissure-in-Ano

According to Ayurveda, Parikartika, or fissure, is primarily caused by the derangement of Vata dosha, associated derangements of Pitta dosha, and affects the twak (skin), rakta (blood), mamsa (muscle), and Purishavaha srotas (excretory channels). The most common contributory factors include:

Dietary Factors (Ahara Nidana): Excessive intake of foods such as processed snacks, deep-fried items, spicy fast food, and dry bakery products can aggravate Vata and disrupt Agni. Additionally, a low-fibre diet coupled with not drinking enough water leads to constipation, which is the most consistent aggravator of anal fissures.

Lifestyle Factors (Vihara Nidana): A sedentary lifestyle, prolonged sitting or standing, and excessive straining during defecation, Ratrijagarana (late-night sleeping), and exposure to cold, dry environments aggravate Vata. Furthermore, the habit of suppressing natural urges, especially the urge to defecate, causes abnormal rectal pressure.

Psychological Factors (Manasika Nidana): According to Ayurveda, mental health and emotional well-being have a direct impact on digestive and eliminatory functions. Chronic stress, worry, grief, anger, and anxiety can vitiate Vata and impair Agni, leading to irregular bowel movements and constipation or diarrhoea.

Other Contributory Factors: Apart from diet, lifestyle, and psychological factors, trauma to the anal canal from medical instrumentation, anal intercourse, or poor hygiene practices can cause physical damage to the delicate anal mucosa. Postpartum women may also present with fissures due to strain and pressure during delivery.

Symptoms (Rupa) of Fissure-in-Ano

Parikartika is described as a condition that causes intense cutting-type pain in the anal region. The condition can present acutely or become chronic, with symptoms worsening if left untreated. These include:

Sharp Cutting Pain: This pain arises due to the tearing of the mucosal lining of the anal canal and is intensified when passing hard stools.

Bleeding per Rectum: Fresh bleeding, usually bright red, is commonly observed either as streaks on the stool or as drops after defecation.

Burning Sensation: A burning sensation in the anus, especially after bowel movements. This intensifies when spicy or sour foods are consumed.

Itching in the Anal Region: In cases of chronic fissures or secondary infections, itching and irritation around the anus are common.

Constipation: Due to a fear of pain, the patient may suppress the urge to pass stool, which can worsen the condition.

Spasm or Constriction: Anal sphincter spasm or a tightness in the anal region may be felt, especially in acute fissures.

Sentinel Tag or Chronic Signs: In chronic fissures, a sentinel tag (a small skin outgrowth near the tear), fibrosis, or delayed wound healing may be seen.

Samprapti (Pathogenesis) of Fissure-in-Ano

Vata Prakopa (Imbalance of Vata Dosha): The primary causative factor in Parikartika is the aggravation of Vata dosha, particularly its Ruksha (dry) and Khara (rough) qualities.

Srotodushti (Channel Obstruction): Vitiated Vata affects the Purishavaha Srotas (channels of faecal transport), leading to reduced lubrication in the colon and anal canal. This causes obstruction or improper passage of stool.

Mala Baddhata (Constipation and Hard Stool Formation): Due to impaired gut function and dryness, stools become hard and dry. Defecation becomes difficult, and straining increases pressure in the anal region.

Trauma and Fissuring of Anal Mucosa: Forceful defecation and dryness lead to tears in the Guda (anal region), resulting in sharp, cutting pain, bleeding, and irritation.

Rakta and Mamsa Dhatu Involvement: As the condition progresses, Rakta (blood) and Mamsa (muscle tissue) are affected. This leads to pain, bleeding, inflammation, and possible formation of sentinel tags in chronic stages.

Cycle of Chronicity Due to Suppression of Urges: Fear of pain during defecation leads to Vegadharana (suppression of natural urges), causing further Vata aggravation and perpetuating the disease cycle.

Ama and Agni Dushti Contribution: Agni dushti (weakened digestive fire) leads to the accumulation of Ama (inflammation), which can further irritate local tissues and slow healing.

AyurVAID’s 4-Step Approach to Determine Root Cause and Create Individualised Treatment Plan

AyurVAID employs a structured, protocol-driven approach to ensure effective treatment and sustainable recovery for patients with Fissure-in-Ano.

Whole-Person Health Assessment
Conducted by our specially trained doctors, this assessment includes an in-depth evaluation of present and past symptoms, Nidana Panchaka (causative factors), Ashta Sthana Pariksha (an 8-fold clinical examination), Dasha Vidha Pariksha (a 10-point profiling), and Srotas evaluation. The fissure’s duration, tone, and position of the anal sphincter, and the exact location of the fissure are also assessed and noted. Relevant laboratory tests are integrated for a thorough evaluation. Dietary habits, bowel patterns, and lifestyle history are also explored as potential contributors.
Disease Tree
A comprehensive disease tree is developed to understand the root cause and the full extent of the condition. This includes triggers such as chronic constipation, pregnancy-related strain, or inflammatory bowel tendencies, and maps them to dosha imbalances (commonly Pitta-Vata), affected gastrointestinal pathways, and the stages of tissue and sphincter involvement.
Personalised Protocol-Based Care Plan
Based on the detailed assessment, AyurVAID designs a personalised protocol-driven treatment plan. It includes local therapeutic applications, internal classical Ayurvedic medications, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle modifications. Local treatments such as medicated sitz baths, oil infiltration and application, and Kshara Karma (where appropriate) promote sphincter relaxation, tissue repair, and pain relief. The focus remains on healing, restoring normal bowel function, and preventing recurrence.
Disease Monitoring and Outcomes Tracking
Our clinical team monitors the patient’s response to treatment through consistent evaluation of pain levels (using the VAS scale), bleeding, inflammation, and stool patterns during bowel movements. It makes adjustments accordingly, ensuring steady progress.

Case Studies

Case 1: A 23-year-old male with chronic Fissure-in-Ano and rectal bleeding

Case Summary:

The patient presented with severe pain and burning sensation during defecation, accompanied by bleeding per rectum and progressive weight loss over a period of one year. The symptoms had been persistent for the past 7–8 months and were significantly affecting his quality of life.

Based on clinical examination, a diagnosis of chronic fissure-in-ano was made. The patient underwent a 12-day Ayurveda treatment protocol consisting of internal medications along with localized therapeutic procedures such as Sthanika Abhyanga, Nadi Sweda, and Thaila Poorana.

Following completion of the treatment, the patient experienced complete relief from pain and rectal bleeding. Bowel movements became regular and painless, appetite and sleep improved, and overall vitality and well-being were restored.

Case 2: A 35-year-old female with chronic Fissure-in-Ano and sentinel tag

Case Summary:

The patient presented with complaints of pain and burning sensation around the anal verge for a duration of six months, along with a visible mass per anum. The symptoms were aggravated during defecation and menstrual cycles. Clinical examination revealed fissures at the 6 and 12 o’clock positions, associated with a sentinel tag and a hypertonic anal sphincter.

The patient underwent Ksharakarma, a para-surgical Ayurvedic procedure, along with excision of the sentinel tag under local anaesthesia. Post-procedure management included Ayurvedic internal medications, regular wound dressing, and dietary regulation.

At the time of discharge, the patient reported significant relief from pain, with normal bowel function and absence of bleeding. She was advised adequate rest, follow-up wound care, and adherence to a light pathya diet to promote optimal healing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a fissure in ano called in Ayurveda?

An anal fissure is termed Parikartika in Ayurveda. Parikartika is described as a condition that has the complaint of cutting or burning pain in the anal area, particularly during and following defecation.

What is the best treatment for a fissure in ano?

Ayurveda treatment for fissure involves local application of medicated oils and ghee preparations, sitz baths (Avagaha Sweda), Ksharasutra (in chronic fissure) and oral medications to promote healing of the fissure and regularity of bowel movements. Dietary and lifestyle changes are another important part of the treatment.

What are the main causes of an anal fissure?

The main causes of an anal fissure are chronic constipation, inability to pass hard stools, persistent diarrhoea, and trauma to the anal canal. In all these conditions, the lining of the anus is stretched excessively or injured, causing tears in the anal lining.

How is a fistula in ano different from a fissure in ano?

A fissure is a crack or tear of the anal canal lining, causing sharp pain during bowel movements, while a fistula is an abnormal tunnel from the anal canal to the skin surface, generally from an infection and has drainage or pus.

Will anal fissures heal on their own?

Mild fissures can heal on their own, but only if the diet and hygiene are in place. But, if the symptoms are major and recurring, it is best to see an Ayurveda doctor instead of waiting for it to heal.

Can stress cause fissures?

Yes. Stress and anxiety can slow digestion, cause binge eating and lead to an unhealthy diet. This can lead to constipation and anal fissures

What is the best diet to prevent anal fissures?

A diet high in fibre and plenty of water/hydration is important to prevent anal fissures. However, if your constipation is due to some underlying conditions like hypothyroidism or irritable bowel syndrome, you should let your treating physician know this.

How long does Ayurvedic treatment for fissures take?

The duration varies according to the condition and health status of the individual. Acute and minor cases can heal in weeks, but chronic and severe cases may take longer.

Hear from our patient!

“I had recurrent anal fistula and even underwent three surgeries, but the problem kept coming back.
I turned to Apollo AyurVAID and consulted Dr. Kalpita Thakre, who listened
carefully to my history and conducted thorough scans. After her Ayurvedic treatment, my condition improved
drastically—I can now sit, walk, and sleep comfortably, and feel confident that there will be no recurrence.
I am truly grateful for the skill and compassionate care at Apollo AyurVAID, and highly recommend them to
anyone with similar issues.”
