Hello...This is Dr Aamir Sohail...
after going through the problems faced, I would like to know if any stool softners is being used at night, stool softners help defecate smoothly in the morning if taken at night...straining will be less and hence there may not be any need to worry for strains in the future...also sitting in warm water relieves the anal fissure problem to some extent..
Thank you.
