Hi everyone,
I'm still suffering from my AF, but I found using Balneol on the TP while wiping is a LIFE SAVER! It surprisingly doesn't sting and it allows for a nice smooth wipe. It does not, however, help heal or help itch, but it does make wiping bearable. Just a tip I've learned. It's expensive but totally worth it and you only need a little. Hope this helps someone! Anyone else have any other soothing tips? I've tried sits baths, blow drying, aloe, all the creams, gels, oils, and they have all irritated, made worse, made more itchy, made red, and overall just made my ass hurt worse.

What I finally discovered after many months of agony was Walgreens brand extra-strength hydrocortisone with aloe. I also use Balneol for cleaning, and when done use the hydrocortisone. Nothing had helped until I finally discovered that wonder cream.

Kellster- I wouldn't use anything with hydrocortisone . As we've discussed a million times in this forum, it can thin the skin after prolong use(over 2 weeks) which is something you definitely don't want to do with or without a fissure.
