Hi new here, and so glad i discovered this forum!
I have a tear just above my anus, and a couple of very small tears around the anus, lucky they are not inside it and are far away enough for me to manage bowel movements without excruciating pain (though it is still uncomfortable)
i am using GTN cream prescribed by the surgeon at the hospital, and im not going back to see him till october - im terrified of surgery and hoping he can do something where i dont have to be put to 'sleep'.
is there anything out there which helps relieve symptoms of anal fissure and helps to heal it?
i have tried a couple of those hemorrhoid creams but they just seem to irritate the area.
