This fissure roller coaster journey of healing just got some tracks added to it... about 3 loops and 4 25ft drops!! I re-tore at the beginning of December on my fissure that is at the 2oclock position (atleast it feels somewhere around there) and then it took about 3-4 days for the pain and lingering throbbing to go away. I used coconut oil, took sits baths and ya... well then on the 19th of December I got a really bad fissure at the ever so popular 12o clock position... (my original one was at the 6o clock) .... well this 12 o clock fissure hurt and it hurt BAD! It completely reminded me of the pain I felt a year and a half ago. I again, did the sitz baths, used coconut oil and this time I re newed my prescription for nifedipine ointment. I couldn't sit down for those 3 days I was in total throbbing pain. There was blood and everything in this tear. Well by the 4th day the pain subsides but then Christmas came and I drank some beer with family and it was hard to disappear to take my sitz baths and leave the family and my kids, so basically I didn't take care of myself over Christmas and I had a slightly big stool and it made me bleed again. Since then I'm making sure I don't do something stupid again. My very first original fissure healed after a year and im determined to heal this one too!!! I got these cool new miralax packets which I can easily take with me anywhere and so I drink half during the day and drink the other half before bed. I have extremely soft stools, but just to be safe, I apply Vaseline before having a BM. I use my nifedipine in the morning and at night. The past couple years I've just completely lost focus on the life I really want to have. Now that this year is coming to an end, I've already set in place the steps and determination to not only heal my fissure but to fix this lazy non energetic lifestyle I've been living. I'm hoping this will fix my BM issues. Anyway, here's to a painless day!
