Hello Rachael
Many thanks for your helpful reply. I decided to put a little coconut oil just on the outside (before I'd read your response), its v early days for me, so far I feel ok, but then I'm on painkillers and I haven't had a BM yet. We'll see..... I hope to keep updating here about my progress. I seem to be one of the few people who have the opposite trouble in that I don't get constipation my prob is I have BM that are too loose, so I have to work on firming them up. Avoiding wheat and alcohol (sadly) seems to be key for me. Hope things are going well for your recovery, and yes this network if great! Just about getting the hang of how to post now, but have been reading posts for ages. I had a fissure 10 yrs ago and LIS which helped at the time, but left me with a fistula- which healed over time with v strict cleaning regime and time, much time. Anyway seem to have a fissure again now. I'm also interested in he many people feel they hold tension (stress related) in that muscle. You know people hold tension in different areas of their bodies....I def hold it here, when I catch myself I can relax it, but I'm sure his is what makes for high testing tension in me! Anyway...enough for now, thanks for your help. Asore
