▲ 2 r/AnalFissures
Question
I’ve been dealing with a fissure on and off for 3 years. It got really bad, blood wise, and I had a colonoscopy (3 years ago). It was clear except for the fissure. I just had a baby the beginning of June this year, and a couple weeks later (lack of water probably 🤦) I had a really hard stool and started having extreme pain again. This has lasted on and off for the past 4 weeks. I went to a new GI yesterday and she prescribed me with Nifedipine, told me to take MiraLAX twice a day and gave me the option of having another colonoscopy. Should I get another colonoscopy? She did a DRE, and didn’t see or feel anything but there was a very painful spot (where I’ve been having the pain)
