I'm new here but have dealt with fissures on and off for around 10 years I would say. For the past 3 weeks I've been dealing with one that looks like it's going to be chronic, but it's in a position that is at about 9 o'clock in my opinion - definitely not right at the top or bottom. I know from reading that this isn't common, but I'm wondering if anyone else has ever had one off midline and if so if it was harder to heal for some reason? Going to be making an appointment with a CRS as soon as the holidays are over. Am very thankful to have found this group!

Hi Lalap!
In first months of my fissure pain, before it was diagnosed I would swear that the pain originates from the right side somewhere between 2 and 4 o'clock. I also made a mistake and explain to the doctor that I think I have some gynecological issue. It really did not feel like butt pain only. The CRS examinations (three times) confirmed a fissure in posterior position, just slightly to the right side. It still hurts like in the beginning, much more to the right side.
So before you worry to much, my advice would be, let the doctor diagnose it.
I wish your fissure will not become chronic and that you will soon be over this.

I feel that I have two non-midline fissures, one on either side. The one on my right (7-8 o'clock?) is a lot worse than the other one. When I apply ointment into the region, I am never able to feel either with the pad of my finger because I can't twist my finger (both are inside). So I never know exactly where they are.

I got unhealed wound(fissure) approximately from 9 o'clock till 11 o'clock.
