Hello BBB,
I also got my first fissure from giving birth to my first child. I eventually had botox. I'm now 10.5months into my second fissure - after giving birth to my second child! Fortunately it is managed now (not healed, but I'm not in agony), as i wait to see the CRS again. (I can't afford to go private, so have to wait for the good old NHS.)
I never had this problem when I had botox (or if I did, I don't remember now). Have you tried any nappy rash creams (sudacrem, for example)? TBH I've no idea what they are like for a fissure, but I would've thought they would calm the area a bit, and maybe relieve the itching.
I hope someone will come along soon with something that works.
