Hi msimon,
I have not had botox, but all during life-with-fissure, I've noticed gas behind the poo, and a tendency for the poo to shoot out uncontrollably. Rocket poo is a pretty good description! Apes, it's not to do with straining for me, either. When the rectum is ready to empty, it does its thing and the poo shoots out, followed by gas. And yes, it can be painful. If there is no gas, the poo just drops out.
I don't know what to do about it, other than avoid gassy foods.
Nifedipine/lidocaine, no help
Diltiazem, effective, but caused major rash
Nitroglycerine, effective.
Topical estrogen for final healing.
Gentle heat to bottom - pain relief, muscle relaxant
Kondremul mineral oil
Time - lots of time.
Status - Healed!
