Hi folks my names Andy from Nottingham uk. Im new to the forum. Found my way here because of pain and looking for answers, Im sure you know the score. I have been suffering on and off with an anal fissure for around 2 years now. Whenever Ive had a bad flair up, mainly from not watching my diet and getting constipated, I have turned to ansol suppositorys to sort me out and they have done the trick.
That was until recently when i joined the gym and started eating to much protein which blocked me up, and pop ,its back again.
First I tried the suppositorys , which up until now have worked, but they seemed to just make me more constipated.?? To deal with that i started eating tons of fruit and veg and prune juice and water and psyllium husks and cut out the meats and up,ed the exercise and yoga and cut out the alcohol and yes i tried EVERYTHING to try to get a loose bm but NOTHING worked. Every morning it came out hard and just ripped me in 2 over and over. In the end i went to the doc,s and he prescribed lactolose.
At last, after about 3 weeks of constant pain this has worked, My morning bm have stated to come out totally loose and pain free !!!! ;o)
But, my question is what happens when i stop taking the lactolose.Is it back to square one ?
Has anybody stopped taking lactolose and lived a normal life after. ?
