Fissurectomy and anal stretch
Posted , 7 users are following.
Hi there,
I had been suffering with a fissure (2 actually) for over a year! After seeing my GP numerous times she finally sent me to a surgeon, who set me up for surgery within a week! I just had the surgery two days ago, and I am actually feeling surprisingly great! I had such excrusiating pain over the course of the past year, that I guess it couldn't have been worse after surgery. I had some aches yesterday and exhaustion, but I am home now, passed my furst motion, and it wasn't bad at all. The only thing I am sufferiing from at the moment is a bad headache from the rectogesic ointment, but I will take that anyday over the other pain I had been suffering from. To any of you out there considering sugery, go for it, and DON"T WORRY!! its not that bad!

i still don't see light at the end of the tunnel, but will just give it a little time. Then....I will consider surgery for sure.

How long have you had the problem? Have you been to the Dr at all? I empathize with you!

I had an episode over 10 years ago, but even painful, it lasted no more than two weeks, so I thought, that was it.
Now...I am going on my fourth month. Keeping my stool soft has been a God sent but still, there is always pain when I first go.
I am using Diltiazem but doctor says it could take months before it would work and my fissure heal.
Trying to be patient.

Happy to hear of your positive results. What are the meds that you have been prescribed? Oxycodone, I have learned, makes me very sick!

Here in the USA, cataflam would be one of our anti-inflammatory medications like Ibuprophen (take with food).
Daflon is more of a is an oral phlebotropic drug indicated in the treatment of venous disease and hemorrhoids. I can see how it would help with healing. I will consider this one.
Thank you Ellise so much for sharing your treatment with us.
