Fissure started February 13 2014, Botox May 5. At my request she gave a lot of Botox 30 units on each side and 18 in the middle of the fissure, total 68. Research showed that quantity and placement are key to successful healing. If I was going to recommend I would not get less then 50 units. I had a follow up two weeks ago and was told it has not healed totally. However, I'm pain free outside of a little dis comfort that attribute more to my hem and sentinel tag. My CRS. Recommended I use nifedipine to try and get 100 percent healed. I'm not sure if the Botox is still active. If pain comes back I would elect for a second round of Botox or possibly try the Kenalog people have written about. I still want to avoid surgery.
