Hello,
I would suggest to take polyethylene glycol with wages as it would soften the stools and reduce the pain.
Local xylocaine application will help with the pain.
Please consult your doctor for a physical exam to check for a fissure and get a prescription for the above medications
Tale plenty of fluids and increase servings of fruit and vegetables in your diet.
Hope this helps
