Painless laser fissurectomy by Dr. Jadhav (MD, FPC, CCKS) at Sunrise Piles Hospital, Wakad — say goodbye to agonising fissure pain with advanced minimally invasive surgery.
An anal fissure is a small tear or crack in the thin, moist tissue (mucosa) lining the anus. Fissures typically cause sharp, intense pain during and after bowel movements, along with bright red blood on stools or toilet paper. They are one of the most painful anorectal conditions — but they are highly treatable.
At Sunrise Piles Hospital in Wakad, Pune, Dr. Jadhav specialises in both conservative and surgical management of anal fissures, with excellent long-term outcomes.
Many people ignore fissure pain out of embarrassment. Untreated chronic fissures become significantly harder to treat. Early intervention leads to faster, simpler treatment.
Recent tear that typically heals within 6–8 weeks with conservative management — sitz baths, fibre supplements, topical creams, and stool softeners.
Fissure lasting more than 8 weeks. Often develops a sentinel pile (skin tag) and may require surgical intervention such as laser fissurectomy.
Surgery is recommended when:
We perform Laser-Assisted Fissurectomy with Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS) — a precise and minimally invasive procedure that removes the fissure tissue and releases excess sphincter tension without conventional cutting.
Dr. Jadhav performs a careful examination to classify the fissure and rule out associated conditions like Crohn's disease or IBD.
For acute fissures, we first prescribe high-fibre diet, sitz baths, topical creams, and stool softeners for 6–8 weeks.
Under spinal or local anaesthesia, laser energy precisely vaporises the fissure edges and the chronic unhealthy tissue, promoting healing.
Most patients experience immediate pain relief after surgery. Discharge on the same day with pain medication and dietary advice.
The surgery is performed under anaesthesia and is painless. Many patients report immediate relief from their pre-existing fissure pain after the procedure. Mild soreness for 3–5 days is managed with medication.
Yes — acute fissures often heal with conservative treatment (fibre, sitz baths, topical creams). However, chronic fissures lasting more than 8 weeks usually need surgical intervention for permanent relief.
Modern laser fissurectomy techniques preserve sphincter function. Risk of incontinence is very low (less than 1%) in experienced hands like Dr. Jadhav's.
Most patients return to desk work in 3–5 days. Full healing typically occurs within 4–6 weeks. Dr. Jadhav provides a complete post-operative care plan.
