Acute anal fissure
I have had this acute anal fissure since a month now, from past 3 weeks due hard stools. I am taking pilex 2 tablets at night, zerodl sp for pain and few ointments/ sitz bath, but it hasnt healed, the bulging in that area has increased too now due to hard stools. Very painful while passing stools. I have been taking all the foods i know can heal- prunes, figs, fibrogyl, vegetables, mosombi juice, apples, papaya.. but alas no improvement in my condition. Please suggest!

[ ] Hi, it seems you have developed fissure in ano. ( a cut in anal canal due to passage of hard stool). You need some good laxative to make stool soft do that it should not hurt the wounded area. Take isabgol husk in Luke warm water after dinner daily. You can try Triphala powder. There are certain ointment to relax the anal sphincter which helps in relieving pain and allows fissure to heal. Do sitz bath three times a day. Feel free to ask any further quary.
