Am I On The The Right Track To Be Completely Healed To Have A Decreased Pain After Chronical Anal Fissure?

I have had a chronic anal fissure from sometime now. My question is the pain has decreased a lot. When I look down I see a skin tag or pile. I can still feel a slight pain every now and again but it is NOTHING like it used to be. Am I on the right track to be completely healed.

Hi, anal fissures do heal after sometime, but they recur once there is a precipitating factor like constipation or infection. It is for your surgeon to examine and tell whether it has totally healed or not. It is impossible to tell by your description.
So i would recommend you to consult your surgeon.
All the best.
