You need to take laxative to soften the stool so that to pass easily without hurting the area.You need to do sitz bath( Sitting in hot water tub. It takes time to heal. Mostly can be managed with non surgical approach. There are certain medicines to relax the sphincter which aids in healing of fissure. Feel free to ask any further quary.
