Nitroglycerine cream for fissures - Anybody?

Posted , 5 users are following.

I went to my surgeon yesterday because of the pain I still have after BM's and I am at 14 weeks now. He did an examine and said I don't have any new hemorrhoids or anything like that but where he cut out the largest hemorrhoid it is raw. He said everything looks fine except for the big raw place. I could tell he didn't know why this is happening, he was clearly puzzled by the spot not being healed by now.

He gave me some Nitro-Bid cream to use with the instruction of 2-3 times a day for two weeks and come back in three weeks. I put some on last night and thought I was going to die, I got dizzy, super headache, neck ache and really tired. I don't want to use it again because of how it made me feel. I did read on the net that it is a common thing for people to use for fissures.

Has anybody here ever used it or know anything about it? I think I am going to go ahead and try to find another dr to get another opinion.

Thanks
