Hello All, I just spent about an hour writing my first post and I've lost the lot!! Arrgh!! Luckily I'm laughing...
I am going to write a really short bit now and try again later...I was mostly wanting to list the latest things that I have been doing as I have finally had 5 amazingly good days in a row after about 4 1/2 months of suffering with this blasted fissure.
For 3 1/2 weeks I have been using Manuka Honey 20+ mainly externally, but internally is comfortable to do so
For the last 1 1/2 weeks I have:
5 min baths after BM with fresh sprig of Rosemary which is a muscle relaxant (I can't have longer baths as it causes me skin problems which in turn causes pain!)
2 cups of Chamomile tea each day (general relaxant and muscle relaxant - but shouldn't be used alongside blood thinners or meds such as Ibuprofen, please check before using)
2 cups of lemon and ginger tea each day with a small amount of raw chopped ginger (good for blood flow but I believe not suitable if you are on blood thinners)
1/4 of garlic each day (good for blood flow but I believe not suitable if you are on blood thinners)
10-20min walk each day
