I'm 50 and have a small fissure but the pain is unbearable. I've been taking painkillers for 2 days and sitting in hot water but nothing helps. Should I consider surgery at this point and if so, what would the cost be?

While surgery for an anal fissure is an option, it's usually not the first course of action, especially for a small fissure. Most fissures heal with conservative treatments like dietary changes and topical medications. If pain is unbearable and persists despite two days of pain medication and sitz baths, it's advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and guidance. The cost of surgery in India can vary, but generally ranges from ‚Çπ35,000 to ‚Çπ50,000
