Olive Oil, Apple Cider Vinegar for Anal Fissures

I am writing this ( from the hell I have been through with fissures ) to suggest something that seems to be miraculously working for me. Trust me, I have tried everything else.

At night before I go to bed, I drink 1/4 cup of organic virgin olive oil with 2 tablespoons of ACV added.One gulp, it goes down and tastes ok.

Also having cleaned the area, I use a cotton ball with castor oil on it and several drops of iodine and well smear the area. That's it.

After months and months of agony, suddenly my BM are easy, no pain or tearing and I feel the fissures are actually healing.

I hope that helps peopleð

Re: Cabbage Water and Colloidal Silver Heals Anal Fissures

For anal fissures, boil cabbage and cool the water. The cabbage water will soothe the area.

Also a combination of 1 tablespoon of colloidal silver and 2 tablespoons of cabbage water. Keep in a container near the toilet and put on the anal area whenever you feel burning or pain. You can put this inside the anus as well. Decreases inflammation, instantly cooling and healing. C

abbage juice is a very old cure for ulcers. Works a treat. My pain is 90 % gone. Check your iron levels. Also about to try emuaid first aid ointment.

Gluten-Free Diet Helping Anal Fissures

Womble (Edmonton, Alberta) on 09/27/2013

I started experiencing painful spasms and chronic anal fissures during the summer, I was in so much pain that I was bedridden for 4 months! My doctors all misdiagnosed me (told me it was hems) and kept giving me medications that only made the fissures worse. After many months of frustration I decided to try going gluten free and to my surprise within 3 days all spasms had completely vanished. Now 4 weeks later my chronic fissures are almost healed.

It seems that gluten was the cause of my fissures and some other health problems(which are also clearing up). I would advise anyone with chronic fissures that refuse to respond to conservative treatment to eliminate all gluten from their diet and see what happens.

Liquid Diet and Fruit Helping Anal Fissures

Hello everyone. I am suffering from Anal Fissures (AF) since three weeks and it has been one of the worst periods of my life (I have experienced Kidney stones too! ). After I suffered from it, I started reading about it online and got a lot of useful information regarding the natural healing procedures. At first, I went casual about it thinking it would heal within a few days (I suffered from minor fissures earlier). But as the days went by, my fissure went from bad to worse. Then, I realized that I was in for a tough fight. I gathererd a lot of info about AF online and found that sitz bath provided a lot of relief. Hence, I started taking them. And indeed they provide a lot of relief and also help in healing the fissures faster because of the increased blood supply. After a couple of weeks, the pain became unbearable and I went to see a doctor (took a lot of courage). He gave me a stool softner and anovate cream to reduce the pain. But it was something that didn't help too much.

Given the pain I was suffering from, I decided to go on a liquid diet for a few days. I relied totally on fresh juices (5-6 times a day) for a few days. This reduced the frequency of my BM and I guess gave the AF ample time to heal without reopening. I experienced a great deal of change in my fissure with that. After 4 days I started eating fruits along with the fresh juice (adding a lot of fibre to my diet). With this I gave my AF ample time to heal and yes I guess it did the trick for me. Now, my AF is around 80% healed and I suffer from very little to no pain during my BM.

Relief Found for Anal Fissures

Survived- Read This (La, California) on 04/03/2012

You have to read this!

I too suffered daily for 8 horrendous months. In the 6th month after trying anything and everything along with two trips to the doc, I discovered two AMAZING things that I SWEAR cured me in 2 weeks- noticing an incredible difference in 2 days.

1.) Aloe Vera gel caps

2.) (VERY IMPORTANT) Raw Okra!!

Try to eat as little as you can (of course taking a shake or supplement of some kind). The idea is to eliminate anything going through the tract while is heals for the first two days. Use gold bond and dont ever use the gel the Dr. Gives you- it only suffacates the anus. Keep it dry.

Drink as much water as you can and only water- STAY AWAY FROM COFFEE.

The Okra is the most amazing lubricant and natural healer for your intestine and once this is in your system defication is a breeze.

Youll notice the amount of time that pain remains after a movement is less and less each day until one day I noticed- OMG!! Nothing!

Keep your hopes up.

Alkaline Diet for Chronic Fissures

Sam (Adelaide, South Australia) on 10/24/2009

I am now healing well and pain free after suffering from a Chronic Fissure for 3 months after the birth of my child. For 6 weeks of that time I was in agonising pain for 2 - 6 hours every day after a BM. I finally had the surgery and expected everything to be fine after. It wasn't. That night after the day surgery the pain was no better plus I was bleeding and had to be taken to emergency via ambulance. I was administered constipating pain killers and three days later had to be re-admitted to hospital for an enema. I then sought natural alternatives which have helped me recover. There is no easy option to recovery. It has been very trying at times but I am now able to work and care for my daughter without worrying about having to use a bathroom in public or becoming stranded and in pain. After my surgery and enema I began taking tissue salts: Elasticity; and Muscle Relaxant. I then significantly changed my diet to only Alkaline foods. You should be able to access a list from a good naturapath. The bleeding stopped straight away and the pain faded almost completely within 2 weeks. So I began to try adding other foods to my diet that were not alkaline such as wheat products, rice, red meat, cheese, caffine and chocolate. Each time I tried adding any one of these foods - even just a little bit, the bleeding and pain returned the next BM. This happened Without Fail! I am now at peace with the fact that I just cant eat those regular foods and It's actually not that hard now. Its just great not having to live with pain worse than labor every day for 6 hours without pain relief. I think back to when I was first diagnosed and desperate to find the quick fix cure and get back to normal. With a chronic fissure there just isn't a quick fix. Just get on this alkaline diet. It also helped me lose 18 kg of baby weight in 3 months!

Hi - i just have a question as I am desperate! my father has a chronic fissure - he had an operation about a year ago to cure another fissure which helped for about 6 months but now it's back with a vengeance. doctors will not operate again as this will lead to incontinence so I am trying to find something that will heal him naturally. Can anyone suggest anything as my father is in unbearable pain? PLEASE?

Iodine mixed with olive oil (or flaxseed oil) 1:5 ratio cured my fissures. I have this symptom often if stool is hard. Whenever I got bleedings due to the hard stool, I washed /dryed the area and apply this mixture with my finger tip. I had to feel the scratched area with my finger so that I could apply it properly to the right area. Then I clean / remove the excessive mixture outside because it may stain the underwear. Usally, the next day, I feel OK but I do this 2 to 3 days to be sure.
