I understand that this can be a very unpleasant and painful problem for your husband.

Cracking of the skin in this area can be caused by several factors, such as: prolonged sitting, sweating, friction, moisture and lack of proper ventilation. It cannot be ruled out that skin cracks appearing in the anal area are related to hemorrhoids. However, other ailments such as anal mycosis or anal fissure should be excluded in this case. Therefore, it is necessary to visit a proctologist. If you are unable to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:
