Anal Fissure?

My son had surgery 2 years ago, but shortly after that had the same problem. He visited another specialist 1 month ago, this doctor prescribe a special cream 40 Gm Nifedipine & 0.3% Lido 1.5% oint, nothing seems to work, is there any other solution? he is in pain with bowel movement and sometimes during the night.

Please let us know. Thank you.

If there is a chronic anal fissure that does not respond to medicines then sometimes surgery is needed. A colorectal surgeon can help.
Nitroglycerin ointment called Rectiv is very effective. Keep his BM soft and regular but not explosive

Likely needs surgical treatment since it seems that medical treatment has not worked.
