Diet for anal fissure
I have anal fissure due to anal insertion but not due constipation. I have been recommended to consume high fibre food, lots of water and 15ml stool softener. I have been eating only two spoon of white rice with lots of yellow dal, curd, dosa chutney all day and I am bored. Can I eat plain roti with veggies (with no gravy)?
if yes, how much roti per day is okay?
Can I also eat potatoes?
Thank you in advance!

You can try oats and wheat chapatti instead of plain wheat chapatti.
1-2 per meal(lunch/dinner) is fine.
Next Steps
A specific advice would ideally be given after taking your complete diet and medical history. So go for a personal consultation and book appointment through Practo.
