I just thought I would post practice parameters for anal fissures from the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons if anyone was interested!

Now we all have a REAL reference source for treatment!
Wow, Lecia, that is probably some of the best info on the board!!
I noticed that nitrate treatment was only considered to be marginally better than a placebo!!!
I wish I'd had access to such "high level" information while I had my fissure..
