I got an anal fissure a month back. Since then I am taking lactihep 30 ml a day and lactifiber once spoon at night. Also using diltigesic gel everyday thrice a day. Am a sports person I play tennis regularly. I have increased fibre in my diet and having 3 litres of water. The fissure seems slightly better as the pain during bowel movement has reduced though pain after is there. Also got a small growth (pimple size) near the anus opening. Its not painful. My q's 1. Is it ok to use lactifiber and lactihep for so long? 2. Is this growth near the anus anything to worry? 3. How long will it take me to heal thank you.

Hello you are on the right medication if you have a diagnosed anal fissure. The idea in anal fissure is if it dsnt heal by one month or recurs again and again, then it becomes chronic, and a chronic fissure may not respond very well to conservative management and may need a small surgical procedure. However if you are feeling better, continue with the treatment. I feel lactifibre will be enough for you and you can do away with lactihep. Take lots of fluids as well and add sits baths thrice a daybto your regimen. Avoid spicy food and non veg. Regarding your question about the swelling, it's most probably a hypertrophic anal papila or a sentinel pile, which is a sequele of a chronic anal fissure. You should not worry about it if it's not causing much issue. I would suggest you to follow your treatment for 3 more weeks. If you still feel discomfort after that, visit a good proctologist or a proctosurgeon in your area. Regards.

1. Yes it is ok to use them for 1-2 months 2. There are different kinds of growth near anus. If its not swollen or painful and there is no pus discharge, there should be nothing to worry about. It should go away with time. If it becomes swollen, painful or pus is coming out, you should see a doctor. 3. It can take up to 2 months for a fissure to heal. If it doesn't heal by then, you should see the doctor again for further evaluation and management.

It is leats better to get an anal fissure checked. It could be some other disease, and many terms referring to diseases in that region are misused. Treatment plan for anal fissures vary, based on the history and findings. I suggest you meet a surgeon, discuss the options in detail, and choose what is best for you.
