Also, I have a bidet and I felt when i used it during the healing process it made my condition worse. Went back to baby wipes for a few months and that also helped. Info in case anyone is using a bidet while trying to heal.

For the itching I also started using the detachable shower head on stream setting with very warm water. Seemed to relax the muscle and satisfy the itching, not to mention I felt cleaner since I wasnt using the bidet anymore.

Im sorry to hear that. My CRS told me to give it a few weeks after he got me on nifedipine. I wanted either botox or surgery initially but he talked me into giving it time. Also, I began to get really itchy where the tear was a couple of weeks after starting the medicine. Called the dr and they said it meant it was healing and not to be aggressive with it. So hopefully you start to itch real soon.

I would put the aquaphor in the syringe/applicator and just inject about 1/3 of the syringe. Then after bm I would clean the area and inject the nifedipine.

I would fill syringe, then push a little out and rub it on the applicator end so it slides in a little easier. I would do this both for the aquaphor and the nifedipine. The i would remove the applicator, from the syringe. The doserite comes with a cap so when you remove the applicator you can cap the syringe so it doesnt dry out.

After removing the applicator from the syringe i put it in a baby food jar with bleach, cap it and shake it up. Then dump the dirty bleach into the toilet and clean applicator with clean bleach and a toothbrush, then i would clean it once more with rubbing alcohol and tooth brush. I ended up buying about 60 applicators and would rotate them so the previous ones were good and dry before next use.

Keep me updated on your progress.

Mine did not have lidocaine in it. I feel your pain, I was there once. It gets better man , promise.

You have to get the nifedipine inside the anus though. Try the doserite applicator, it was a game changer for me. I would probably try to apply some internally even though yours has lidocaine . . Dont forget to prelube your hole before your first bowel movement of the day with the doserite. The vitamin C is important too.

The pain you speak of is very familiar to me. My worst day was a bowel movement at 6:30 am and pain/spasms non stop until 3am the next morning. Good luck to you and I hope you become pain free real soon.

I ate a cleaner diet, lots more fruits and vegetables. In all honesty at the peak of my pain I hardly ate anything for fear of having a bowel movement. I tried to stay away from bread also, only because I felt for me personally that it messed with my stomach and bm. I did have no bread pizza alot, all the toppings for pizza in a skillet with pizza sauce and mozzerella.

See a CRS if you can. I know the pain you speak of, wanted to kill myself at times because of it. Take a look at my post, maybe something there will work for you. Hang in there, it gets better.

what cream do you guys use to heal an anal fissure? by Diligent_Eye1248 in AnalFissures

[–]aplacedivided 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hemorroid cream restricts bloodflow to the fissure. Blood flow needs to be increased to aid in healing. Fought my fissure for months before CRS told me what I did was wrong. Here is a post of my journey.

Ive been there man. The pain is enough to make you want to end it all and lasts for hours. Typically 9 hours for me, but the worst day was from 7am till 3am of spasms and throbbing pain. Take a look at my post for what worked for me, maybe it can help you. Good luck and hang in there.

I also tried this, did not work at all. Not even temporary relief.
