Have Anal Fissure, Internal Hemorrhoids. Have Not Had Bowel Movements. Any Way To Get This Out Without Pain?
I havent had a BM for almost 3 weeks now.. i have an anal fissure a sentinel pile, internal hemorrhoids and i need to have a sphincterectomy done. Iv been dealing woth this off and on for years now but its just gotten unbearable within the past 3 or 4u month. The urge to go is there but the stool is so large and impacted that i just cant stand the horrible pain and uts almost to the point were the pain is so bad tht it seems like even why i try to work past it my body wont let me. Iam terrified and in an indescribable amount of pain. If i have tried so many thing you wouldnt even believe the extent tht iv gone to help it and iv seen a gastro but he didnt help me. Is there anyway to get this out without pain? Or is there a way tht my gastro may b able to get it out of me mwithout putting me through that psin?

Hi,
* As per my surgical experience, the need of surgery is obvious if perfectly diagnosed clinically.
* Palliative measures of pain relief till curative surgery would be
- sitz bath regularly
- high fiber diet with bulk-forming laxatives
- analgesic as tramadol hydrochloride or else
- dietary measures to avoid spices and chilies which can provocate the condition
- avoid smoking or alcohol if consuming
- local application of analgesic gel as xylocaine ( 5 % ) before and after bowel movements.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
