I think there was someone on this forum who had 100 ml. I think the name was apes or something.

See this link for explanation of the puborectalis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levator_ani#Puborectalis

Also, if you really do have anismus, I highly recommend that you get a referral to a good pelvic floor physiotherapist if that's available in your area. I have found that colorectal doctors completely ignore the possibility that pelvic floor issues could be the underlying cause of a fissure.

I'm not sure if he's right? I don't have any other symptoms just a fissure an a tight anal muscle but he thinks maybe more without any tests I only said if feels like bms can't fit but isn't that just a tight muscle?

I suppose it is just a tight muscle as he says.

(I say it's just a tight anal muscle) he thinks maybe it's that plus a bit of anismus but how could he know if he hasn't done any tests or anything? Or should I just go with it an be grateful he's covering all bases? No harm in letting him put Botox up higer into this anismus muscle? If it works it works if it doesn't well we rule that extra issue out?

Has he done a digital exam? That would be a good way to tell, and you won't need any specific testing besides just palpating the muscles.

No he did nothing but on a good note he said if I need lis later he'll get my anal tone tested first which no other surgeon has mentioned so he's a decent surgeon
