Hey guys, i dont know how to feel about the sensations i am experiencing so i figured i would reach out. So far to recap, afterfeeling like i hurt myself from having to insert nifedapine and lidocaine in with a gloved finger for my 3 bms of the day, i found myself in a terrible spasm. That was 3 days ago, since then it felt like a bit of the pain of the fissure was actually alleviated..... but the spasms were a lot worse. In fact i can feel my whole pelvic floor jump sometimes and that hasnt happened in over a month. I am still not experiencing pain on bm. However, overall i just feel way more tight. How is it that one day i can feel pin point places on both sides where there is distinct, sharp, pain... and the next day not feeling nearly as much pain, but feeling like everything up there is tight. 3 days ago i used to be able to feel my anus just relax... now its all jumpy all of the time. I dont get this at all... sometimes i get twitches in my legs as well.
I am using nifedapine now with nitro, inserted into the anus. That will be the plan for the next 6 weeks, if not by then i will be seriously considering surgery.
im using a bit of miralax in the mornings now with 2 colace per day. 2 teaspoons of benefiber every day, at least 3 liters of water
lots of veggies and a few little piece of fish per day, i also make sure to get 4-8 prunes per day.
2-3 sitz baths per day
Have i reinjured myself? Or does this sound like healing? It feels kinda like a bruise where the cut is (mine is internal) but its like the anus wont let go enough? I dont understand because its like nifedapine has just stopped working all together. It also feels like the body has been hurt and is guarding itself with this spasm but could i just be feeling it more due to healing? Or is there a chance that i injured myself ?
when i walk now, i actually feel less of the fissure pain HOWEVER I feel my butt tense up with each step and as i said when i stand still, i cant feel it relax. The muscles in my buttocks also do feel tighter. Is this the calm before the storm? Or could i genuinely be on my way to feeling better?
