Re: fissures

I've been dealing with a chronic fissure with a "tag" that gets inflamed. I'm using nifedipine ointment with some improvement. Is is possible that your abdominal pain/bloating is from a change in diet? In an effort to ease the discomfort of fissures many people increase fiber/change their diet, which could trigger the symptoms you described. For me, I found that additional fiber actually made thing worse. What has helped is taking Miralax. Good luck! Lynn

Re: fissures

Can you please explain a fissure to me? I am 29 and I think I have one, I have large bm's sometimes that feel as if they are ripping me open (sorry TMI) And I think one healed weird and it is just kinda like loose skin/tag. I only have discomfort when I have large bm"s and firm ones, I see blood when I wipe. I had a colonoscopy some years back and I have ibs and internal hemroids, I don't think what I have is a hemroid although it got worse when I was preganant last year.
any advice?
thanks
