preventive : keeping the anal area dry. cleansing the anal area gently with mild soap and warm water. drinking plenty of fluids, eating fibrous foods, and exercising regularly to avoid constipation.

Well it's highly unlikely that dizziness is due to dilzem cream as you have left it 6 months back. Its a short acting drug and effects vanish soon. You rule out some other cause for your dizziness. Get a cervical spine x ray done, an ear checkup, an ECG and CBC. Get a physician checkup done to see the cause and treat the cause.
