Anal Fissures, Pain. Taking Gutclear For Softening Stools, Smooth Cream Post Stools. Ways To Prevent Recurring Condition?
I had fissure about 1 month ago. As advised by the doctor I started taking Gutclear for stool softening & also applied Smooth cream after discharge of stool. The pain got less but 3 days before again I started having pain & again I am suffering from fissure. I did not stop taking the medicines advised by doctor but still fissure has recuperated. Please advise what can I do
have sitz bath 10 mins 4to 5 times per day. it will relieve pain and also accelerate healing of it
simultaneously take 5 to 10 gm of psyllium husk at bed time .
have more water. apply that cream also.if you still not having smooth stools you can have cremaffin plus 10 to 15 ml at bed time by 9 o clock in night
it will make the stool more soft. you may have some loose stools. so you should be take leave from office for that day.if you are having pain now then take a pain killer medication for today
do exercise .not to be sedentary
