Hi guys
After a very painful 48 hours and an emergency hospital stay I find myself 'blessed' (ahem...) with an anal fissure.
I've been prescribed Diltiazem cream (2%) to apply twice daily but wasn't given much direction. I've applied this twice now but both times it's been burning to the point of pain. I've been applying it on the outside ring of my anal opening... am I applying it right or do I need to go deeper?
Any advice? Right now I find it easier to move about etc without the cream and I doubt this is what the doc intended!!
Thanks!
