Re family history. Yes my dad also had a fissure. I am not sure if its a genes thing though.....it could be environmental in that he was punished for being 'bad' as a boy by being belted on the bum.....which could lead to bracing and holding tension in that area....and he also used this form of discipline with me...I definitely brace myself in that area, and I think my fissure came from the high resting tension I have in that area.....so genes or environment .....who knows? The other weird thing was that my dad had been clear of his fissure for twenty years, then I had a abscess that led to a fistula and literally the same day I'd got my abscess he also got an abscess, his cleared up though whereas mine went into a fistula...weird coincidence though eh?
