A lot of people use and recommend movicol.
Fibogel has soluble dietary fibre in it - it can help with BMs, but you have to take it with plenty of water, because it draws water into your gut (hence the stools become soft). Also, it can really bulk up your stools because of the extra volume of the fibre. If that doesn't bother you, good. But if you want small stools (most of us do), I would take OMB's recommendations.
Nifedipine/lidocaine, no help
Diltiazem, effective, but caused major rash
Nitroglycerine, effective.
Topical estrogen for final healing.
Gentle heat to bottom - pain relief, muscle relaxant
Kondremul mineral oil
Time - lots of time.
Status - Healed!
