Sounds more like an anal fissure.  There are creams that you can use to 'deaden' the area while it heals.  They have a local anaesthetic in them.  

You need to get the constipation sorted out.  There are products available over the counter that help to soften the stool ie Movicol or Parachoc (paraffin preparation - helps to slide it out!) or laxatives.  Once the blockage is clear, do everything you can to avoid more constipation ie lots of fibrous fruit and vegies ie apples, pears, carrorts.  Or take a fibre supplement like psyllium husks (Metamucil).  Don't forget to up your fluid intake.  It should preferably be water but any fluid is better than none at all.  And also exercise, it helps to get your gut moving.

And constipation can lead to haemarrhoids - you don't want them.

Hemorrhoids aren't cuts in your anus. They are veins that swell and get inflamed and usually pop out of your anus so that you can actually feel them, sometimes they are internal as well.
It is possible that you got them if you were straining to pass a bowel movement.
