Hello All,

Its been sometime since I logged in as Ive had trouble getting back onto the forum. I had to re register with a new email address to get back in. I am quite desperate for some advice. I had my fistula laid open two days ago. I was told that in the process of laying it open they found.....yes....another fissure !! Likely to have been caused by the seton i had! Anyway, i am trying to keep the wound clean, but at the same time i have been prescribed GTN cream (rectogesic) for the fissure, but i am anxious about applying this cream whilst my fistula has just been laid open and not wanting to get an infection in the wound left by the fistula. Should i hold off before i start using the gtn for the fissure, or should i start using it straight away? Any thoughts about this would be great. Thanks AA
