About ointment for fissure
Yesterday my stool came rock hard. It was so hard that i had to use my fingers (with gloves) to take it out. It happened due to the medicine i took for nausea. Today stool came very soft but with pain and blood. So chemist gave me this ointment for that wound which happened inside the anus. Is it ok to use?

You need to take laxatives like syrup Lactulose or Cremaffin. Include high fibre in your diet with lots of fruits and vegetables. Can apply smuth or lignocaine or fidonal ointment. If problem persists and pain increases, better to consult a surgeon in person.
Health Tips
Take plenty of water and fibre.
