Anal fissure

Our Treatments

 

 

Irregular food habits and a sedentary lifestyle can lead to painful anal fissures.

 

A searing pain during bowel movement, lasting for hours thereafter, is not a very comfortable way to start the day. This is what occurs when a person suffers from anal fissures.


The fissures happen when there is a tear in the muscular layer of the rectum or the last part of the gastrointestinal canal through which the stool is expelled.


There could be thin, shallow and painful ulcers too which can contribute to the pain.Busy people in their 30s with sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy eating habits, are prone to this condition. Constipation also plays a major role as the hard stool tends to irritate and inflame the rectal walls. The need to strain to expel the stool also contributes to it. People suffering from conditions like Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Ulcerative Colitis or even Amoebiasis have a tendency to attend to stool more than three to four times a day, causing stretching of the rectal walls.


Also, the ineffectual urge or the constant urge to relieve without really passing stool causes a constriction of the muscle walls and over a period of time this leads to fissures and pain.


Blood streaked stool rather than profuse bleeding is a feature of this malady. Discomfort and pain are characteristic features which can remain for hours during the day.


The pain is aggravated with every effort at passing stool. Eating fibre rich foods, drinking a lot of water, avoiding alcohol, regulating intake of oily and spicy foods and stimulants such as tea and coffee are all helpful. As is a certain amount of physical exercise every day.


Homoeopathic medicine has good remedies to help relieve pain and constriction in the rectum while helping heal the laceration quickly.


Remedies like Paeonia, Ratanhia, Ignatia, Aesculus get rid of the pain while Acid Nit, Graphites etc. heal the fissures. Ruta helps in getting rid of muscular constriction. Nux, Sulphur, Plumbum Met, Platina get rid of constipation while Mercurius, Aloes, Argentum Nitricum keep irritable diseases of the large intestine at bay.
