Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Most of the anal fissures heal by conservative measures alone. For my patients i advise stool softners like docusates and mineral oil preparations which break the cycle of spasm of anal sphincter.I also advise to avoid sharp food items like popcorns nuts chips etc.I encourage sits bath after bowel movement which gives relaxation of spasm.Creams which contain anesthetics and steroids are also given for short term use.
Let me know if you have any further query.
Have a nice day.
