Is this anal fissure
Im having anal dryness, cracked feeling skin, light itching and a poking feeling near anus since 2 months. Inserting picture. I can notice 2 small bumps also near anus. It does not pain. The itching is mild but its creating discomfort and a poking feeling. No pain and no blood. Im having mild bacterial vaginitis also from same 2 months but that is settling now. The BV has almost cured. I have taken antifungal and antibiotic medicine for the vaginitis. But my anal issue is still existing. Does vaginal infections cause anal issues? Because after the vaginitis only the anal itching started. Can a gynaecologist help with my issue, is this something serious. Do i need to consult a proctologist now or what do I need to do. Im very frustrated because though its mild, its not going completely. Can anyone prescribe me medicine if its not very serious

Vaginal infections are not known to cause anal fissures. Sitz bath lasting 15-20 mins per day along with local analgesic creams usually cure fissures. Also constipation needs to be avoided with diet and medications.
