Hey I'm new here but I'm not new to anal fissures.
I've been suffering from them going on year now but it feels like forever!
I have Crohns in my lower intestines and have been newly diagnosed with perianal now & it all started with having bad constipation one time and it just open the gates of anal pain hell.
Either way my GI/surgeon told me I have multiple fissures & they're all very deep. I can feel three right now just laying on my stomach typing. I'm pretty sure it's like 5 there though along with a skin tag.
I've been relaxing, sitz bathing, I'm on Remicade, doing yoga, putting on aloe vera or/with lidocane (sp?) and it's not doing much it just makes it feel tingly and wet. The only time I felt normal was when I was re-upped with Remicade (given a triple dose) but they just came back when I ate something that didn't agree with me once.
I just want the pain to go away! I've tried the flagyll (sp?) and ciproflaxim (sp! I know I messed that all up). but they've done literally nothing. I think I have spasms (where it feels like it's tightening and relaxing randomly) and they're very bad. What can I possibly do?
Is my anus too tight because it always feels like I'm passing the largest stools and come to find out it's like toothpaste. Help!
