What should I pay attention to for anal fissures? Friends who suffer from anal fissures should note the following: Firstly, pay attention to your diet. Adjust your diet structurally to be diverse. Drink plenty of water and eat less spicy and stimulating food; abstain from alcohol and betel nuts; eat less spicy hot pot and similar foods. Also, maintain a smooth bowel movement. We should develop a habit of defecating regularly, and treat constipation correctly. However, in treating constipation, we should not misuse laxatives and should use medications under the proper guidance of a doctor. We should also pay attention to keeping the anal area clean and hygienic by washing it after each bowel movement. After defecation, it is best to perform sitz baths using salt water, traditional Chinese medicine pain relievers like Shen Tang, or potassium permanganate solution. This helps in the recovery of the anal fissure. In addition to the above, we should also engage in appropriate activities. Friends with anal fissures can perform anal muscle contractions, such as Kegel exercises or stretching exercises.
