Hello lybrate-user, the main purpose of laxatives for treatment for anal fissure is to keep your stool soft and easy to pass. If you are already taking plenty of fibres, then osmotic laxatives like duphalac will helpful. If you are containing less fibre in diet then lactifibre will be more preferable. But remember, treatment of anal fissure depends upon two factors, avaidance of constipation by any means, and to avoid straining. Thank u.

Hello lybrate-user, probably you got habituated to the use of laxatives and that is y you get constipated whenerver you skip the laxative. Most of the times, it is our mental dependency then the actual physical dependency. So,keep patience, kept on trying, work on that to keep the stool soft without taking laxatives by taking plenty of fibres, water and liquid, papaya etc. These will definitely help.

Hello lybrate-user, if you are diagnosed to have fistula, then please understand that it's an extra passage which is communicating from rectum with outside. So only ointment or antibiotic will not going to give you cure. Sitting in hot betadine water is going to keep the area clean. But you need to consult one proctologist for this. Hopefully you will be cured.

Hello, I am facing lot of pain after passing stools from past 20 days. I was prescribed sitcom cream, sitcom ld tablet with oxerute and duphalac syrup. Sometimes there is no pain if I pass stools once a day, but if its twice the pain is bad. As there was no relief from pain I am asked to take hilo for 10 days and lactifiber syr. Will this help. Why does it pain after stools when thy are soft and pass easily. Does this happen in piles. Is there anything to worry.

Hello Mr. lybrate-user, there can be multiple reasons for this sort of a condition. However the most common is ibs. For now stop taking a lot of medicines. Try taking powder lactifiber, 2 spoons in a glass of water at bedtime. Also walk/do any other exercise, about 40 minutes every day. Try this for two weeks. If no relief, you might need to get some blood and other tests. If you are using tobacco/alcohol, you need to discontinue the same. In case you have to wake up in the middle of the night to pass stools or have any blood in the stool, please consult a gastroenterology specialist urgently.
