Hi All,
I am 25 yr old female just diagnosed with multiple anal fissures and a skin tag.
GP visit was literally in and out (if you will excuse the pun) and just didn't get to ask as many questions as I wanted to so really glad I have found this forum! I have found out a fair bit on fissures but not really about skin tags...wondering if the skin tag is should be something I am overly concerned about. Doc says not so suppose I should listen!
Basically have been having bleeding and pain during BM for the last couple of months. Dont know how they first happened as I dont ever remember being constipated...that said though I do sometimes rush my BM's (just impatient and bored on the loo) which I am trying to change (but when it's agony coming out, it's tempting to push and hurry up the vile painful process isn't it?)
So anyway, GP confirms I have a few fissures - she says it is not uncommon to have more than one (which had concernened me)so I feel re-assured there. Prescribed me Rectogesic (Glycerin Trinitrate) which I applied as soon as I got home this morning. I have to say, literally within less than a minute I got a big headache which I still have now (2 hours later). It's bearable at the moment but very unpleasant. I just want to go to bed now.
Does anyone here have any experience of the same thing when using this?
Diet has been naughty of late which I am sure hasn't helped so I am back on the veggies and salad etc now which I am hoping will help.
Not too freaking out about this yet but would like to know if it is likely these headaches will go or likely they will stay and ruin the fun
Cheers and wishing you all a nice pain free day
