Lateral sphincterotomy is done to make the anal opening lax , so that it will heal the wound i.e fissure.
High fibre diet with plenty of fluid intake helps in avoiding hard stools .
But once you have a episode of hard stools , you should take remedies to avoid further episodes .
Hard stools are the cause for fissure .
