What Are The Symptoms Of Fissure?
Hi
it's been about 4 days that i have pain which i think is fissure, i saw blood (like 3 4 drops only) several times during the past 2 months and also I saw a skin tag which i didn't take serious... i didn't have any pain until 4 days ago. every time i go to the bathroom i experience a very bad pain...
I'm scared of the skin tag (sentinel pile), does it need to removed by surgery???
I would appreciate if you could help me on this.

Let the general surgeon have a look at it and take a call. If it is a fissure, the conservative treatment would include, Sitz bath, a stool softener/laxative, an antiseptic ointment like the betadine ointment and appropriate diet advice for a month. If conservative treatment won't help, the surgeon might decide upon a fissurectomy.
