Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
I know the results of Botox injections are not effective in fissures ( anal fissure).
Conservative treatment ( without surgery ) is there but before this we should know the exact position of fissure and its depth .
2nd point is , if there is pain or not ?
Diabetic or not ?
Hyper tension or not ?
Age & gender of patient .
Upload these reports over this site .
Good luck.
