hi all! i wonder can anyone help me. ive just found itchy blisters round my fissure tag and anus, could this b caused by using rectogesic? ive been using it 4mths now. help! going for botox tomoro.

Aw sounds painful.  I don't know .....possibly could be a side affect of recto.... I use coconut oil (raw organic) first then put the recto on top of that so to speak.  I insert the coconut oil, then insert recto coconut oil makes inserting the recto easier and it may help to soothe your blisters, oouch!  Hope it gets better soon, good wishes. AA

thank u for replying aa like ur name:-) i will try the coconut oil. have u been using the recto for long, did u get botox?

Hi PB. Yes I have been using recto since mmmm last Oct I think.  I had Botox nearly 4 weeks ago.....I have a diary under diaries..if u want to check it out about my progress. Coconut oil is also good to eat a little, I have about a small spoonful every day....helps BM to slip out...google it -it has good healing properties.  Re recto I've found it better since using it with the coconut oil.  Also don't use loo paper....either use baby wipes, or just a shower head to clean up after BM -that may also help with your blisters, good luck!

thank u so much aa. i wish u the best if luck to. i will read ur diary it will b very helpful to me in the coming days after my botox. thanks again for replying aa x

When are you having Botox? Be good to hear how you get on....maybe start a diary?  Good luck with it!

im getting my botox tomoro aa im so nervous ive had a really good week no blood and less pain ive been suffering from january really bad. i just want to b able to take a lovely walk in the mountains again since the start of the year i cant walk the lenght of myself its heartbreaking! u seem to b doing really well after the botox u suffered a long time from october with it aa i hope u continue ur great healing and ur able to go swimming and back to the gym again x

Good luck tomorrow.  I was nervous too, but it went really well.  Just pain on the first few days, then v little pain....no pain killers needed after the first few days.  I was able to walk after the first couple of days.  I am back to swimming now, and it's fine.  I haven't dared bet back on my bicycle yet though! I think I will wait a few more weeks for that!  You will b fine tomorrow, warm wishes.

really happy ur getting ur life back aa. i will let u know how it goes. thank u!!

Puzzled,
People do develop reactions to using the creams and you've been using it a while. My CRS was really adamant that you shouldn't use it continuously for more than 8 weeks and only after, on and off, so would definitely ask the question.
Like AA, I'm a huge fan of Coconut Oil - incredibly soothing & moisturising. Some swear it's healed their fissures, so would recommend it, but it might help you just to lay off any applications after the Botox just to let your bot "breathe" again.......
ALLthe very best with your Botox tomorrow - There's a fair few on this site who've had that procedure recently, so keeping my fingers crossed for you that all goes well xx
