Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of having fissure ion ano and your Doctor has prescribed you two different ointments. ThankOD and Diltiact.
Yes diltiact should be use half an hour before the bowel movement and the other after.
Anyways, start using this.
You are also needed to take care in an additional way:
Sitz bath in a tub with warm water.
Mild laxative to have smooth stool.
Diet as it suits you.
No anxiety or stress.
All these factors also help to heal up the fissure.
And if there is a recurrence, go for surgery.
I find this answer helpful
