4 the past week I’ve been dealing w/ hard stools(I’m not constipated)my poop is big & hurts,there’s a sharp pain & I bleed sometimes when pooping(anal fissure)My mom said just 2 get it out,but I almost cry in pain when I do so,I end up holding it in 4 a day & pushing it out painfully the next,I don’t want surgery.I got DolcoComfort liquid gels & Preparation H 2 help soften stools & heal the fissure.I’ve been taking these for4 days & it’s no softer/easier to pass stools, I now dread going #2.
