Anal Fissure
Hi I have acute fissures and have been using sucral ano cream and cremafin plus from past two weeks, I feel better using these but the last two days I stopped using them and I feel burning pain again. So how long I need to use the cream and tonic and also how many days will it take to heal acute fissures and also suggests food that needs to be avoided during this phase. Thanks
