Hi fissure friends,
2 weeks into this.
I think so far the damage is just inside my anus. I note no sentinel pile, signs of blood, or open tissue outside the anus. Regular TP works fine for now.
It is a pimple like protrusion (a big pimple) about 1/3 of the way into my anus.
At worse, it stings and aches slightly. At best, I feel like I have a diaper rash from the Prep H Aloe that I am using on a hemorrhoid I am trying to prevent from becoming thrombosed.
I am trying to eat smartly, soluble and insoluble fiber.
2+ liters of water daily
Colace 100 mg morning and night
Miralax 1x at dinner time
Hydrocortisone suppository after morning sitz
Hydrocortisone suppository after PM BM/sitz.
1000 mg of vitamin c morning and night
Magnesium 500 mg. PM
I walk a fair amount at work and try not to be seated for too long at a time.
My big questions right now is what else should I be doing?
and
what should I replace the Hydrocortisone with after they are gone?
I have an appt. in 2 weeks with CRS, but of course want to use this time effectively as possible.
Thank you kindly,
Chas.
