Anal fissure
I am having anal fissure for 3 months with multiple episodes. Having bleeding and pain for couple of weeks then symptoms improve for a week or 10 days but again facing the issue with bleeding and pain. This episode keeps repeating. I am using anorelief cream as adviced by doctor and stops once my symptoms improves. I have also used sitcom tablet for two weeks as adviced by doctor which I felt helps improved my symptoms but was not diagosed with piles as such. Is it possible to have both anal fissure and haemorroids together? If you please suggest how to take it forward the treatment for my current issue then it will be much helpful.
Thanks

Pain and little bleed can be due to fissure. You have recurrent fissures.
Try these for one week.
Clear lax once a day in 250 ml and start with two spoons then can increase to have loose bowel movement
Sir in warm water twice a day for 15 mnts each time
Apply xylocaine jelly before going to toilet
Hydrocortisone cream application after toilet
