Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Best treatment of anal fissures is prevention of constipation.
So drink plenty of fluids orally. Avoid hot and spicy food. Eat high fiber diet like fruits, green leafy vegetables etc.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Go for walking after meals.
Seitz bath (sitting in warm water) 4-5 times a day is also beneficial.
Apply lignocaine gel on fissure area for pain relief.
You will mostly improve with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
