Hello all,
I went to see a doctor about chronic anal fissures and he prescribed me hydrocortisone suppositories with unlimited refills. I used them 2 times daily for several months, only discovering later that they can atrophy the skin (and are therefore limited to two weeks).
I haven't had any truly 'bad' fissures in a long time...but it seems like I can never heal 100%. I fear this might because the skin is thin and now just prone to reinjury.
Does anyone know of a way to recover from steroid/hydrocortison overuse?
It is so important to me to recover...I just can't think straight anymore. Too anxious and worried.
Thank you all for your help.
