I'm not sure everyone feels the same thing or can explain it very well. With me, I would feel like I was passing a razor blade, always having the pain in the same 2 places. This is what I'd call my spasm, my muscle would contract when moving my stool through and pull on the fissure sites. After the initial razor pain, it would lessen from 10/10 to 4/10. The pain after is more of a soreness and an inability to sit down on it.
Other my describe the pain in a completely different way.
With nitro, it encourages your blood vessels to expand and pump the blood to that area quicker, which is why you feel a strong heart beat in your head. You'll likely have a headache for a while after, maybe some light headedness too. This is the nitro doing its' job. Making blood rush to an area to aid healing.
Your spasms will likely happen after a BM. but may feel completely different to some people on here.
