Hello,
Fissure can be treated only with surgery. Some advices that I can give to you are:
- Use over-the-counter stool softeners.
- Drink more fluids.
- Take fiber supplements and eat more fibrous foods, such as raw fruits and vegetables.
- Take warm baths called sitz baths to relax the anal muscles, relieve irritation, and increase blood flow to the anorectal area.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
