Anal Fissure Support Forum

I'm sure many of you have probably found this / something similar, but I use something like this at home and take it with me wherever I go.

I have been "healed" for about a year now, with just a few tiny recurrences that clear up within a day or so. My husband are going to be traveling overseas at the end of this month, flying from Chicago to Thailand. I am SO nervous about the long flight because I usually get constipated on ...

Fissure seemed pretty good while on vacation with food eating habits, etc., but it seems to have been aggravated by sitting and hurts and is red and itching all the way up my butt crack towards my spine. Has anyone experienced this before?? I went to a vitami...
