I went to my CRS and she did a finger exam. The fissure and incision site is healed, but the incision area is a little red. She also checked the sphincter muscle and it appeared normal. She wanted to do a scope of the area, but I was afraid of getting a tear as I am so tinder in the area, so we agreed wait 6 weeks and see what happens. If I continue to have problems or it gets worse, then, she will exam with a scope.
I do not get any burning, but I get some discomfort after a firm BM that can last a couple of hours. The fissure area is still very tinder during the BM. I will continue to take stool softener, high fiber diet and hot baths after a BM when possible.
STOT and JBL, I hope that you are doing better, and Rachel you must be getting close to your LIS date.
