Anal Fissure
I have been experiencing anal fissure since past 7-8 months. Sometimes it got healed but it kept coming back and has not gone permanently. I had one consultation on practo doctor suggested to have Sitcom forte and softlovac powder for 10 days. There has been relief but when I stopped the meds after 2/3 days again the pain started to happen.
Any suggestions what should I do now

You may be having a chronic anal fissure, which means the tear has not healed completely and keeps coming back. This is common when treatment is stopped too early. You should continue taking a high-fiber diet, drink plenty of water, use stool softeners like Softovac daily, and take warm sitz baths regularly. Applying ointments like diltiazem or nitroglycerin can help relax the anal muscles and promote healing. Since it has been ongoing for several months, it’s best to consult.Needs further evaluation like sigmoidoscopy.

Healing of the anal fissure depends on the depth and fissure location.Medical management could be tried with high fibre diet, avoiding constipation using stool softener, applying locally anobliss cream.Definite treatment is surgical.
