hello,
34 year old male here, ive had a chronic fissure for about a year now. they say its a fissure but I feel like I dont have what alot of people experience as far as bowel movement. I feel like I get relief when I go. I never have any blood in my stool. I wake up I’m fine, I take my morning bowel movement and I’m good for about 30 min to an hour. Thats when I start getting sharp pain, almost spasms. So irritable, i want to scratch so bad and I know not too, I get so much anxiety and my gut tightens and I get very frustrated. I then go to the toilet and usually pass another small BM. Ive always taken about two every morning. the first one I feel like not all gets out. I dont know. After this, for about the rest of the day I get this sharp pain about every 30 min or so, after 3pm its not so bad, ill get a flare up occasionally. At night im fine and sleep fine, maybe twice I had a rough night and the only relief I seem to get is when sitting on a toilet and wiping, even when I dont have a BM. some days I sit on the toilet 25x. I cant focus at work, I feel anxious like I cant go do things now.
Im just now starting to take stool softners. ive tried pranicura, that didnt give me much relief. I used the nitroglycerin from doctors, helped in the beginning now I feel it does nothing. Today is firt day using the 40% zinc cream and miralax so im hoping for some more comfort. I have botox injection scheduled in a month but im worried that wont even help.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
