Hi All,
I have read the symptoms some of you are having and they sound incredibly painful. I almost hate posting this topic talking about how mine don't hurt but the truth is they do interfere. I developed a fissure about a year and a half ago. Thought it was a hemorroid for a long time until I finally made myself take a closer look and what do you know..a small piece of skin had formed where there once had not been any..(I'm trying to make this sound as pleasant as possible). Anyway, up until a year ago it was bleeding and itched but now it is under control. Does not itch or bleed but I can definitely feel at times like something is there that shouldnt be. And occasionally, it does feel a bit sore (especially after BMs). The thing is just so unattractive looking and I fear that when I am intimate, it is visible. I understand that this is a vain problem to have but it really puzzles me that I have such few symptoms and yet IT IS STILL THERE. Unless I have surgery, will this thing be there for life? And I can't even justify having surgery performed if it doesn't hurt..Are all fissures visible? And if not, why would mine be?
Thanks, you guys are awesome.
Emily
