Hi All,
I'm a 38yr old married male. 2 kids and an awesomely loving wife.
An Indian guy, who is mainly veggie guy for the week, and a meat guy over the weekends. Whiskey follows without second thought. So diet is fairly okay with enuff fiber. No history of constipation. Have 3 BMs everyday like clock work. Then 1 fine day , had a fissure....
I have 3- 4 recurrences in the last 6 months. Everyone, the pain level is reduced but the Healing time is more.
I have made lifestyle changes such that I include 2.5 to 3 ltrs of water, Avoid red meat. Avoid spicy food ( that's so not me), avoid whisky.
The onset of it was due to extreme stress and a the drinking that happened around the same time which I thought would reduce the stress.
What a moron I was then. Have taken to more saner approach like not getting stressed easily and drinking beer now n then to enjoy & not to de stress.
My questions are
1. I want to start exercising like before the time fissures occupied my life.
2. I'm seriously considering LIS and my wife who healed over a 2 yr period using Shield ointment is advising me against it. Her problems were a lot more severe and she says that I shouldn't go for LIS.
Please help me in Deciding.
