I am 4 days post op, and so far so good, no pain after bm, and no leakage, doing a sitz bath after each bm, taking fiber supplement, and Colace stool softener, as well as drinking 2 glasses of prune juice each day, as I have been doing for months due to af. Wish I had done sphincterotomy sooner, but at least now there is an end in sight to pain after 6 months, well wishes to all who are going through this.

Congratulations! I really hope your recovery is smooth and fast.
Nifedipine/lidocaine, no help
Diltiazem, effective, but caused major rash
Nitroglycerine, effective.
Topical estrogen for final healing.
Gentle heat to bottom - pain relief, muscle relaxant
