Hello everyone i have been suffering from Hemorrhoid for many years now. But it has never gave me any trouble till about a few months ago. I got my first fissure in May and i have been suffering ever since. It has been a while since i slept for more than 3 hours. Image

It's rough, too bad that it is affecting your sleep! Pinky asked most of the questions above I would have asked. If you haven't yet, do read some of the threads and there you should find many tips on how to start managing your fissure and most likely, the amount of pain you are having. You really should start looking into one of the various conservative methods of treatment, like Nefedipine, Nitro, or Botox.

thanks for the replies. My stool is usually soft but the problem is i go to the bathroom A LOT. Right now i am using anusol and i will be picking .2% Nitroglycerine on monday. Last night was a nightmare. The pain and the itch was unbearable. Btw i have multiple fissures maybe that is why i am in so much pain.

Here's hoping the nitro really kicks in fast and you get some some needed zzzzz's, TMWT!

I hate that itching. Hopefully, the nitro can help quickly. Maybe you can cut down on your fiber or laxatives so you don't have so many bm's.
