Hi, i am new to this forum. I've never posted anything anywhere before but i have had the horrible experience of having anal fissure and i wanted to share what i had done to rid of this problem. I hope i will be able to help at least one person here.
I went to the doctor and here is what he told me to do.
1. get Neosporin
2. get Carmax (the lip balm for cold sores)
3. get rubber finger gloves (individual finger slip ons, you can get them at any pharmacy or general store like Dominicks)
4. get moist wipes (prep H would work)
Put the rubber finger sleeve on, apply neosporin on it, and insert it into your anus, but not too far. Alternate with carmax balm. Do so multiple times a day. Alternating neosporin and carmax. Both neosporin and carmax might sting at first when you apply it. But the stinging will go away fast. I promise you.
Also, sit in sitz baths 5-6 times a day or as often as you can.
Wipe the area with moist wipes after using the bathroom.
This worked like miracle for me day one!!! I felt relief right away. I hope this helps you too! and neosporin eventually heals the wound.
Good luck!!!
