Fiber Question
I have started increasing my fiber intake due to anal fissure. I have a bowl of All Bran cereal for breakfast, a turkey sandwhich on whole wheat bread for lunch, and oatmeal for dinner, and for a snack I eat a pear or two per day. I also drink about 4 liters of water per day due to a urinary problem that I have also. The problem is I am having increased bowel movements. I am going 3 times per day and the stools still seem hard. I'm not sure what I should do. I am trying to get this fissure to heal. But, I don't think it's helping to go so many times per day when they are somewhat hard. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
