It suggests of fissure.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.

According to your symptoms, it suggest your wife is suffering from fissure. Fissure means crack at anus.

I suggest you to repeat urine routine to see presence of pus cells. If they are increased in number, then you may need to further investigate. If already done and it is normal then no need to worry.

Urine pus cells and fissure are not related to each other. For fissure you need to start sitz bath(sitting in tub filled with warm water with 2 tsp dettol for 20mins 3 times a day, so that anal region is soaked properly) and ointment(containing xylocaine, zinc and mild steroid) 3 times a day and take cremaffin syrup (only if she has constipation). You may discuss this with your doctor.

For hypothyroidism, you need to get thyroid profile done after 3 months of last testing. Fissure is common after and during pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. If any further queries are there I would love to help.

Regards
Dr.Deepika Patil
