See if you are taking all the precautions your doctor has suggested to you you should be fine there will not be need for a surgery. The need for surgery depends from patient to patient, and even if you require a surgery that is a very minor procedure you do not need to worry about that procedure it hardly takes half an hour to one hour of surgery. You can consult to me for more information my consultation fee is just ?50 anal fissures can be quite uncomfortable, but many cases can be managed without the need for surgery. Here are a few suggestions that may help: sitz baths: soaking the affected area in warm water can help promote healing and relieve pain. Take a sitz bath several times a day for about 10-15 minutes each time. Dietary changes: ensure you have a high-fiber diet to soften your stools and prevent constipation. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fiber-rich foods in your meals. Drink an adequate amount of water to stay hydrated. Stool softeners: if you're experiencing constipation, your doctor may recommend stool softeners or fiber supplements to make bowel movements more comfortable. Topical treatments: over-the-counter creams or ointments containing ingredients like hydrocortisone or nitroglycerin may help reduce pain and promote healing. However, it's best to consult with a healthcare professional before using any medications. Good toilet habits: avoid straining during bowel movements and take your time in the bathroom. Use soft, unscented toilet paper or wipes to avoid further irritation. While these measures may help alleviate symptoms and promote healing, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized advice. They can assess the severity of your condition and recommend appropriate treatment options. In some cases, surgery may be necessary, but it is typically considered as a last resort if conservative measures fail.
