General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

* As per my surgical experience, the swelling and itching in the area from anus surrounding indicates fissure development most likely. Kindly follow further guidelines as below

- avoid constipation with plenty of liquids, high fiber diet, bulk-forming laxative as Ispaghula husk or Psyllium
- sitz bath regularly
- local application of analgesic ointment as xylocaine or diltiazem (2%) for fissure healing
- utmost diet care to avoid spices, non-veg, junk foods
- avoid smoking if applicable
- cetirizine for itching relief
- discuss the need for antibiotics with your treating doc after clinical examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
