An anal fissure can be treated with surgery. Meanwhile, some advices that I can give to you are: -Using over-the-counter stool softeners. -Drinking more fluids. -Taking fiber supplements and eating more fibrous foods, such as raw fruits and vegetables. -Taking warm baths called sitz baths to relax the anal muscles, relieve irritation, and increase blood flow to the anorectal area.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
