Brief Answer:
Fissure and piles are commonly co-existing

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Soiling is involuntary passing of fecal matter. It could be due to fissure.

Anal fissure can co-exist with piles. After treatment of piles it may have become more severe. Fissure usually has severe pain, bleeding with bowels and due to pain soiling maybe there.

Fissure is usually treated with medication initially. If it still persists or prolapsed pilles develop, then surgery maybe needed. Do apply lots of pain killer cream and vaseline all over (and little bit inside) the anal area whenever needed especially before bowels. Drink enough of water (clean water) so that stools are soft. Ghee and butter in diet can add some grease to the stools so that they pass out easily.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks

Brief Answer:
Yes it can be used

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

Basically there should be enough of pain relief and greasing in the area especially during defecation.

Nitrogesic cream is good enough for healing. Also you can have lignocaine gel (anaesthetic) to apply before defecation. I personally like vaseline but coconut oil can also be tried in its place.
