For onychomychosis you have to use ciclopirox topical 24-48wks with oral anti fungal agent after confirming the infection under dermatologist guidance. For fissure you have to take high fiber diet with syrp. Cremaffine plus 15-30ml at night with diltiazem gel local application. If symptoms not improved you may need surgical lateral sphincterotomy.
Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
