I've been dealing with recurring anal fissures for the past six months and the pain makes sitting unbearable at times There's also a skin tag near the back and the fissures seem to surround it Can both the fissure and skin tag be removed in one surgery How long does the healing usually take after that

Fissure and skin tag can be treated together with laser or surgical excision; healing takes 2–4 weeks typically.

I'm having some pain when I poop, and I've noticed there's a mole or something that has popped up near my butt hole. It's not bleeding, but I'm worried. What could it be? Is this something I should be concerned about?

It sounds like you may have developed a hemorrhoid or a skin tag near the anal area. While it's not uncommon, I recommend seeing a doctor for an accurate diagnosis and to discuss potential treatment options, especially if the pain persists.
