... getting depressed about this situation and don't know what to do anymore. Last time I had a fissure, 5 months ago it went away within 5 days. No spasms no blood and I thought I was all healed. Now my BM's are so off, I've lost almost 20 lbs and am having very uncomfortable spasms. It's like a ...
