I got anal fissure after delivery with a sentinel tag. I took homeo treatment with no access then a laparoscopic surgeon suggested me anometrogyl along with chymoral plus (twice a day) with softovac once at night, sitz bath twice a day. I did all this and was cured in around 10 days. Stopped chymoral plus after that but still continuing sits bath, softovac and anometrogyl and have been taking fibre in my diet, chewing my food properly and water intake is 2.5 litres per day. I have to rejoin office next week. So my question is for how long do I continue sits bath and anometrogyl. And is softovac a habit forming as I haven't been constipated but i'm of recurrence due to sentinel pile and god forbid if ever I pass hard stools after leaving softovac. I don't wanna go for any surgery. Any suggestions are welcome.

Hello lybrate-user. Fissure is a disease with recurrence nature. As you have taken allopathic medicine its suppresses fissure for some while it may be 15 days a month 2 month or may be 6 month but it will surely recurred with time. You may stop sitz bath just take high fibre diet to avoid hard stool .fissure and tag will never go with medicine. With time your condition may go worsen. Its only permanent cure is surgery but it may lead to loosening of anal ring. You should go through laser procedure it will relief you for nearly may be 1 yr. Actually in laser procedure laser numbs the nerve which supplied towards fissure. I personally cured ma y chronic fissure and tags with my own thread ligation procedure but it is a little bit painful and time_taking procedure but your problem will surely eradicate for lifetime.
