HOW TO CURE ANAL FISSURE QUICKLY...

Posted , 230 users are following.

Hi Everyone - I can tell you how to cure Anal Fissure's quickly...

Firstly, my experience was horrible just like everyone else. I have read that it can be more painful than childbirth! Mine started from an overly large bowel movement that ripped me in 3 places. The pain was so bad that i passed out on my bathroom floor with blood and feecies hanging out of me when i woke up. The doctor gave me suppositories and anasthetic cream but nothing was working. I have concucted a reigime that has cured it in nearly three days. When i read on forums that it can take a few weeks i said to my self 'There is no way im living with this pain for that long'! EVERYTHING HURTS.... Sneezing, Laughing, Coughing, Walking, Sitting, Lying down... the list goes on... follow these steps and it cleared up 3 days.

1. Your going to need a few things from the shop - The first is Anusol Cream (despite people saying its not as good as preperation H and other stuff its has worked wonders for this reigime and is designed for anal fissures and hemeroids. The second is COCONUT OIL (MAGIC STUFF).... Anchient chinese cultures still use this to heal wounds of all kinds and this really was the turn around stuff for me. Thirdly... Ibuprofen for temporary pain relief and lastly Dulcolax tablets... I will show you how to use all these products for a quick repair in a minute...

2. Psychology ... DO NOT sit at home and wollow in pain and sadness. Go to work, see your friends, live a normal life but be careful. Positive mentality keeps you relaxed and promotes healing. When i was at work i barely felt any pain because i was so distracted, but when i was at home it was constant pain. Make sure you do this, im certain this has really helped. Also do not be affraid to tell people exactly whats wrong with you, i have found great amusment talking to people about it and 6/7 of the people i spoke to had been sufferers too, its nice to know your not the only one and you can see them well and happy!

Here is my reigime that saved me:

1. The night before take 1-2 of the Dulcolax, it doesnt kick in until the morning but you need this so you dont damage yourself further. It is not a laxative it makes it all soft and squidgy and it just falls outta you. Minimal pain.

2. In the morning your gonna need to have a bowel movement, before you do. Run a bath and put a few table spoons of cocnut oil in it. (hot bath), then have your bowel movement. Mine was too painful to wipe so as soon as i finished i hopped in the bath and the water IMMEDIATELY relives the pain (BLISS).. and the coconut oil moisturises and heals. Stay in there for a good 10-20 minutes and then i promise you it wont be hurting as much now so now you can apply the anusol cream. 

3. Before you head off to work or start your day, take 2 ibuprofen. After all this, it will sting a little but by day 3 you can barely feel anything. 

4. Make sure you take your ibuprofen after breakfast, lunch and dinner. I had high fibre cereal for breakfast, water all day normal lunch and whatever for dinner. 

5. Make sure you re-apply cream if you have a bowel movement during the day. I tried to just have one in the morning so i could not aggrovate my anus too much. 

6. After dinner, take your ibuprofen, run a bath with coconut oil and just sit and relax for as long as you can (make sure you put NOTHING in your bath except the cocnut oil as soaps and stuff can dry you out and make it worse).

7. Before bed, take your dulcolax again drink plenty of water and get good nights sleep.

This regime has fixed me in 2 1/2 days pretty much which i found amazing (i think it was the cocnut oil, which stings like a bitch but is AMAZING, i doesnt numb pain but it promotes healing). I am so pleased to be living a normal life again so quickly as i thought i would never be the same again. It is really important you dont fester at home doing nothing as it will only make it worse, go out, see the world and forget that its there. 

Hope this helps people as it has really helped me and i wanted to share this with others. 

Hope you all feel better soon! Keep smiling and never give up!!

Peace & Love

    I am going to try this ,Right now I am using Nitro ointment and it seems like it has eased the pain. I have gone to a specialist and he just brushes me off he did a scope and then told me come back in 5 years ,what a joke that is what about my pain but I just get a look as if to say learn to live with it .

      This has happened to me as well. Its to the point where Im actually becoming depressed about it. The coconut oil has helped SO much. 5 years, your lucky haha My doc told me to come back in 10 ! 

      I hope you have success with the oil. I can sympathize with your situation.

    Thank you so much for the advice Morris. I suffered with a fissure for over a year which had a major effect on my daily life: work, exercise, personal. Almost there but toilet is still a bit inconsistent and cant always complete passing stool in one sitting.Just a bit more advice that might help others.

    1. Try to stick to 3 regular meals with one snack in between

    2. Exercise when you can. I found swimming especially good

    3. Don’t hold back from going to the toilet. When you have to go, go. Although it may be painful. Also found that a lot of the pain and pressure comes from not completely clearing your bowel. Good idea to clear bowel fully using laxative products(talk to pharmacist)

    4. Drink a coffee in the morning to help open bowels. It kept me regular

    5. Lots of water but small amounts regularly.

    4.clean yourself in the shower rather than using toilet paper. Retrogesic wipes are useful to ease discomfort and for cleaning

    5.Sit on a chair that has been heated by the warmth of the sun for relief

    6.try to go about things as normally as possible

    7. Read about other people’s experience.

    i do hope this helps as i felt like  yoi was all alone fighting this and I found you lose a lot of confidence from the anxiety involved. I’m now back running 5km two times a week, swimming 1 km and riding 2 hours at a time.

    All the best

    Good morning, I have been diagnosed with anal fissure for the past week and I am miserable as ever. The first day was extremely horrible and the pain was unbearable. I was told to take sitz bath with Epsom salt and take stool softener as well as fiber powder and Maalox. It's been a week and still the pain is there off and on, I need help with other things I can do. I was told that if I did surgery it would be a 1 in 250 chance that I would be incontinent. I need help guys, I been out of work for a week!

      So sorry you are in pain. I am also. I have decided to have the surgery. Just trying to pick the best possible doctor. Maralax has been very helpful for me. More so than other stool softners. It gives me more time between flare ups. Any extra pain free time is worth it.

      So sorry you’re going through this! I know exactly how you feel. The pain is like passing glass. I used to pass out during my bowel movements. I found this post from “Morris” and I did EXACTLY what it said. I was relieved in 3 days as it stated. I was also home from work for a month already so I did the 3 baths a day and use the oil, it really is a miracle. However, as helpful as this all is there are some things you have to keep up with. MAKE SURE you stay on a fiber diet and water.  I lost some weight and was scared because I’m already thin but eat better now to eat good later. I made that mistake and messed myself up and I had to have surgery in the end. I got too comfortable with not being in pain and didn’t let the wound heal all the way. It usually takes about 6-12 weeks to heal because unfortunately it is a high moisture area. But don’t let that time frame scare you. If you keep up with diet and stool softeners you won’t be going through pain. After the 3 days you’ll feel great but just keep up with the routine. If you’re scared for surgery, I had the surgery a month and a half ago and I feel great. Sorry to say this but the recovery process is 10x worse the fissure feeling. I want to be honest. But after two weeks I felt like a brand new person and it was incredible. Do not push during your bowel movements! Let the stool softeners do their job. What worked for me is I took Duclolax around 6pm the night before and let them work till morning. I would also recommend Anusol ointment, not cream. They don’t have it in US so I had to order it from the UK on Amazon. It is such an amazing relief that it’s another miracle on its own. I used it twice a day. Before and after work. Everyone has their own relief system but this is what helped me. If you have any questions I can try to help. Good luck!!!!!

    Hi, everyone.  I just had the surgery and it was a success!!!  I have been in pain for two years.  The spasms were unbearable so I made an appointment with my surgeon.  She scheduled me for surgery the very next day.  It took about 12 days before I felt better from the recovery.  However, the spasms ended immediately after surgery.  Like so many of you, I had tried everything:  baths, coconut oil, weedgrass, drinking more water, sitting on a cushion, etc.  I was afraid and scared to have the surgery but my quality of life was horrible.....I have no regrets now.  Good luck, everyone!

    Great Post, Morris - but unfortunately didn't work for me.  Here's a few things that did (in case it's of use to others):

    1) Juice diet - for as long as you can (healthily) manage it.  I went for 2 weeks, others can go several weeks with practice.  Assuming no underlying medical conditions, it's actually the body's best natural way to recover from a variety of conditions.  Apart from reducing BMs and giving you a few days' pain relief, the body frees up the enormous amounts of energy usually needed for digestion, which it uses instead to cleanse and heal.  After about a week it goes into recovery overdrive, repairing deep-seated scars, even years-old old bone fractures to make the even stronger and of course muscle tears like fissures.  Hence the longer you can go the better.  It didn't stop my BMs completely, as apparently the intestines take the chance to shed old compacted matter (gross!) which comes out every few days, but it did reduce.  Lots of web sites dedicated to this subject - look them up for more info.  This kick-started my recovery.  I was sceptical, but it worked.  And it will benefit your body in many other ways.  Just be careful if you are in any way medically sensitive (diabetes, heart conditions etc).  But for most 'normal' people this is perfectly safe, and is what animals usually do when sick - they stop eating.  Now I know why.  Changed my perspective on how to best recover - you really don't need to eat because you 'need keep your energy up' when ill, as I'd always been told as a child and adult.

    2) Use a stool softener - I found Movicol (soluble powder) - just 1 a day, and it's kept my BMs regular and soft, even following long runs (which dehydrate me and my digested food regardless of how much I drink afterwards)

    3) Keep the fissure moist.  Using vaseline after BMs and wiping does the trick - no need for fancy creams.  Also I use after a shower (any soap / shower gel will dry out the skin), first thing in the morning etc as a precaution.

    4) Consider yourself like a recovering alcoholic - one slip can put you back to zero and a long recovery process, so monitor your water intake and diet every day - though once recovered, the Movicol has allowed me to get away with some poor diet days (but I'm always back on the wagon the next day - don't wanna ever go there again).  So lots of fruit and veg, I reduced pasta / white starch and heavy meats, or was careful when I ate them (no longer the same night as a run, given I'd be dehydrated - so now easy-to-digest food only following exercise; you can always fill yourself up the next morning if this leaves you hungry).  I also eat a bulky fibre-based cereal for breakfast most days (Shreddies in my case, but whatever suits your taste - I'm sure there are healthier alternatives).

    The above took time to achieve a full heal, but it DID work, and nothing else had.  (I'd had a recurring fissure for 12+ months, then did the botox injection which made everything 1000 times worse - if I'd known the above, I'd never have had the botox).  Realistically, every couple of weeks I'd notice a reduction from say 8-10 hrs agony to 6 hrs severe pain, then 2 weeks later 5-6 hrs pain, and so on, and noticing that ibruprofen actually started taking the pain away completely (hallelujah!), but I suppose a good 3-4 months until 100% recovery (last couple of months were so nearly pain-free it was hardly noticeable).

    Hope this helps others - I've been about 6 months pain-free now after just about giving up all hope.  Thanks to everyone who posts about this and other conditions - if only doctors were aware of some of these very easy-to-use treatments, it would have saved me (and I'm sure others) a great deal of suffering and unnecessary surgery.  Andy

    Hi all, 

    Thanks for all the information. Has anyone experienced a dull pain around and near the anus? I have to to a colo rectal surgeon who’s only interest was slice and dice. I opted to not go that route and am heading to a gastroenterologist next.  I had some HTC hemorrhoid work done and has eleavated that scenario but still have pain.  The first doc said I had a fissure and gave me some expensive cream. All that did was numb be for awhile. Any suggestions!! 

    Thanks

    Guys - MUSCLE RELAXERS!  Taking a muscle relaxer (like baclofen or skelaxin) helped me enormously.  A big source of the pain and delayed healing is the throbbing/spasming/gripping.  There is an outer sphincter muscle that you can control, but there is an inside sphincter muscle you can't control.  That's the one that keeps you awake at night, makes your anus contract uncontrollably after a poop, etc. 

    When your anus is tightly contracting all the time (which is a reflex when you're injured and in pain), you're constantly re-tearing and injuring the cut in your anus.  Take a muscle relaxer and let it heal.
