Yes, it is entirely possible for an anal fissure to recur years after surgery, and getting it evaluated immediately is the right decision. While procedures like a lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS) are highly effective, they do not permanently alter your digestive habits. If you experience occasional hard stools, straining, or localized muscle tightness, the delicate anal lining can tear again. Catching a recurrence in its initial phase gives you a massive advantage, as acute (early-stage) fissures can usually be healed completely without a second surgery.You should book an appointment with a colorectal surgeon or a general surgeon, preferably the specialist who performed your 2021 procedure.
