Function bowel disease and IBS, fissure
Is it possible to cure Functional bowel disease or IBS with your medicine. I have been suffering from digestive problem since 5 years, now I am 33 years male. I have also a problem of anal fissure occurring tendency and once Lateral sphinctertomy surgery was done and doctor told if again fissure occurs in future and surgery needs then stool incontinence will start. I have also came to know that without SSRI all medicine causes Hard stool as a side effect especially for Irritable bowel syndrome patient. Now, how can I start treatment so that anal fissure don't occur taking anti psychotic medicine??

IBS is a functional gut–brain disorder, so it is manageable (often well-controlled) but not a one-time “permanent cure”; your concern about fissure recurrence is valid because hard stool is the main trigger, and not all psychiatric medicines cause constipation—this depends on the drug choice; instead of antipsychotics, first-line in IBS with anxiety is usually gut-friendly options like SSRIs (they often soften stool) or certain non-anticholinergic medicines, along with lifestyle measures; the focus should be on maintaining soft stool consistently (high-fiber diet with soluble fiber like ispaghula, adequate water, avoiding straining, regular bowel timing, stool softeners if needed) and reducing gut sensitivity via stress management; you should consult a psychiatrist + gastroenterologist together so medications can be selected that do not worsen constipation, and with the right combination, both IBS symptoms and fissure recurrence risk can be effectively controlled.

We have to assess the root cause of ibs.. it occurs because of some stress and when that is properly addressed things can be managed properly. So what is in the base of IBS needs to be identified.
