I don't recall what strength nitroglycerin ointments I was given, but you can compare it to the prescription called Rectogesic to see where yours stands.
I had Botox for my fissure and it healed. It took a while though, but I still have residual pain which is caused by pelvic floor tension. That's something I'll probably need more Botox for. It's a good option to try before LIS if you don't want to get surgery.
8/16-12/16: Fissure due to antibiotics
5/17: Botox to sphincter, fissure healed
9/19: Trigger point injections and pudendal nerve block
11/19: Botox to pelvic floor
8/20: Botox to pelvic floor in new location.
On and off in pelvic physical therapy
