I am 31 years old and suffering from fissure. It has taken a lot of time now to get healed completely. Over the period the pain has reduced, but its not cured still. I am doing sitz bath and using diltiazem 2% gel (Diltigesic) cream, but it causes severe itching near anal area. Currently I have got a small haemorrhoid at the rectum but it will not pain. I am suffering from severe pain while passing stools only. Request you to please suggest a treatment or another gel for quick cure.

An anal fissure can't always be prevented, but you can reduce your risk of getting one by taking the following preventive measures: 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.
