Hi. I was diagnosed with a fissure when I went to my doctor but he saw the skin tag and recommended me to a colo-rectal surgeon. He prescribed diltiazam and lidocaine. The pain had been lasting all day especially when I shifted in my seat and wasn't limited to after bowel movements. After I started.the pain went down from 8/10 severity to 3/10 severity but it hasn't stopped completely although some days are better than others. I am also doing an in-vitro fertilization to have a child. The doctor said the only thing curative is to have surgery but reading about it it seems risky due to side effects. Does the pain ever go away completely? Yesterday the pain was almost 0/10 but today it was up to 5/10
