Kind thanks for the welcome...FANTASTIC USER NAME :)

Hi,
Newbie here. I hope Im doing this right. I was diagnosed in Nov of 07 with this fissure. I am using diltiazem as we speak and on my 4th week. Anyone have good results with this?

Welcome to this wonderful forum ! I love the username !
Absolutely stick with that cream :) this worked for me before, took a little longer than 12 weeks so hang in there !

Really? 12 weeks? That is actually good to hear. I do see some improvment! My username oh? Fissureboy! I am in my 4th week now

Thanks for the Welcome!

I used Nitro and Nefidapine creams and they gave me good relief and I healed eventually but had my fissure reopen soon after again. It is definitely possible to heal with creams but you also have to take care of diet (making sure that your poop is very soft) and take regular sitz baths every day. I hope that you are not in too much pain : (((. I wish you best of luck and welcome to our forum !!!

I am glad you see an improvement :) diet, water and stool softners are the key...NEVER let that slip while you are healing :)
