Hi,
I avoided sex at all costs whilst the fissure was really painful. Fortunately I have a very understanding partner who never put pressure on me at these times. We resumed activities after & when the pain had all decreased.
Best positioning for me was on top where I felt I could control all my moves and this took any pressure off my bottom too. Of course, there are many other ways of gaining full pleasure, (without being too graphic!), and we used these methods as alternatives too.
I too was lucky in that an orgasm did not create any reaction to the anal spasms and found it an important part of my recovery process, as it made me feel I could still feel normal in my love life and gave me some of the best and deepest sleeps afterwards!........
