I've been using the GTN ointment on my fissure in the morning, usually directly AFTER my morning BM, which I believe is supposed to prevent spasm.
But I've read somewhere that some people prefer to use it BEFORE the BM, to loosen the sphincter and make the BM easier.
Today I read about a guy who used it both before (about 5 mins) and immediately after every BM!
Any suggestions?
