Hello everyone, im rt 40 male, new to this forum. Glad to know that i am not the only one with fissure problems...
Started june of this year having a hard poop come out, after awhile felt nu butt hurt with blood on tp amd water. Went to a colorectal surgeon and saw that i had fissure. I was given pain meds, calmoseptine cream/fiber capsules and stool softener. With all this there are days i am ok and there are days that i feel like the fissure had a retear....its a never ending cycle of getting healed and unhealed.
One thing i find strange is that after a bm i get this throbbing/pulsing/stinging feeling for hours....i try to divert my attention on other things but sometimes i am annoyed with this feeling. Usually i have this feeling after a regular bm in the morning and another strange thing is come afternoon that odd feeling usually subsides...are these spasms? Stress?
I have an active lifestyle. Work in the office and into basketball....
How do you guys cope up with the pain and all? Although i was given pain killers for the pain, i only take it once it is really untolerable. I dont want to be dependent on it...sitz bath i do after bm...helps me awhile but not long term.
How can you guys cope up with this af?
