How I healed my anal fissure after 2 years of suffering

Hello, just wanted to share my story here. I have been on this site many times when I was suffering from anal fissure for 2 years. its a long story but I want to just focus on how I healed and what finally worked. I see a lot of people going for surgery and I would highly recommend you try the steps below before you do. I have tried almost everything you can think of and here is what worked in steps below.

1. break the cycle. Go on a 2 day water fast followed by 5 days of juice fast. it worked for me. the idea is not to poop or atleast the hard poop and rest your anal muscle for a few days so they start healing. take a laxatives or stool softener to avoid constipation. see step 6

2. Most important: Cut all fiber out of your diet. I eat mostly meat, eggs, white bread and rice. This i what think is the reason why I finally healed. All my doctors (I saw 2 different doctors and 2 surgens) have told me to eat fiber eat more fiber fiber fiber... and every time I add more fiber I remember my fissure would hurt evan more and it made things a lot worse. I think doctors are screwing people over there is a research paper on cutting fiber heals constipation if someone wants to research look it up on google. So no fiber or very little fiber until you heal 3-6months.

3. anal dilation start with your one finger insert in butt for 10 mins and keep stretching anal everyday 1-2 times daily. Slowly move to 2 fingers and more if you can, you can also buy anal plugs from Amazon which can make this easy do this for 3 mon atleast.

4. wash your butt after ever bowl movement and I mean really wash it get in there and clean it wash but don't be rough. wash with warm water and always dry it after. only wear cotton underwear makes a difference no polyester.

5. Try diltazium cream - honestly I'm not sure if it made a difference but I was using it while I healed so I want to mention it. I have used other similar prescriptions before which did nothing for me.

6. Take a stool softener that is safe for long term use. Make sure it stool softener not harsh laxatives. take daily for a month and than adjust to as needed.

Avoid or reduce caffeine, spicy food and anything that irritate bowls. Other thing that worth trying include pure aloe vera gel, sudo cream (baby rash cream) and sitz bath but these are less important to overall healing.

the most important thing is be patient and stick to the routine and don't miss a single day. follow all the steps and i really believe it will work for most if not all. it takes time to heal some people may need 6 mon to 1 year to completely heal.

Good luck to all battling with this disease.
