Yup same deal about 2 years out. It definitely is easier than when I had the fissure, but rawness is still prevalent. However, I just went back to the Dr. and got some new things to try.
First I stopped drinking coffee. It can really irritate and make stool acidic. Metamucil can help absorb any leakage that can cause this irritation.
I also start using 2 creams which have so far worked wonders clearing up most of the irritation so I can feel normal again. Use Balneol when wiping and cleaning the area. Once clean, apply some Calmoseptine to the area or apply on some tp if necessary to absorb any moisture. So far its worked great and once the rawness gets better, it seems to help having cleaner BM's which help the situation even more.
