Fissure

Fissure is the tear in the mucosal lining of the anal canal. It most commonly presents in infants though it can occur in any age group. The chances of getting a fissure is increased more in people with history of fissure in the past. Fissures are usually very painful and present with bleeding lining the stool. It’s caused due to trauma to the anal canal either due to passing of large hard stool, chronic constipation, prolonged diarrhea, or insertion of foreign object in anal canal.

Sinusitis

Homoeopathy acts very quickly in reducing the severe pain in acute fissure. It also helps in treating the causes of chronic fissure which is constipation in most of the case. In modern medicine, anal suppository, local ointments are the main line of treatment at a conservative level. These are difficult to be followed especially in infants and children and also in adults on a long term basis.

Homeopathic remedies such as Nitric acid, Muriatic acid, Aesculus, Ratanhia, are extremely effective in treatment of fissure. Unlike the typical use of external topical agents to bring about temporary relief, Homoeopathic medicines are administered orally to treat the disease permanently from the root. Customized medicines needs to be prescribed for chronic fissure after taking patients symptoms in details.

Along with medicines making life style changes are very crucial in the management of fissure. Patient should take high fiber diet and plenty of water. Having minimum 8 glasses of water is especially important in patients who are on fibre supplement like Psyllium etc as otherwise it can worsen the constipation. Patients should avoid straining at stools and should stay active to avoid constipation.

Homoeopathy is the best form of noninvasive treatment for fissure with which surgery can be avoided totally.
