I'm having a tough time dealing with pain after using the washroom for about a month now. I saw my GP, and he diagnosed me with a fissure and gave me some meds like CiploxTzH and Rinifol, plus Smuth Laxative and Anovate cream. A week later, the pain was a bit better, but I got worried and went to see a surgeon. He said I've got a fissure and two Grade III piles, with a lump outside the anus, and suggested surgery. Surgery freaks me out, so I got a second opinion from another surgeon. He also mentioned surgery but said it's not too urgent unless things get worse. He gave me 2Dilgel for the fissure. But when I use it, there's this terrible burning sensation around the lump. He said it should get better in 2-3 days. Is 2Dilgel really good for both fissures and piles? Also, is it okay to use coconut oil internally for fissures? What should be my next steps?

My husband has been having a really bad pain near his anal area. We noticed what seems like a skin tag. It's making it hard for him to sit comfortably and also, it becomes quite problematic during bowel movements. Could it be something more serious, or just a skin tag causing this much trouble? What should we do from here?
Warm Sitz Baths: Soaking in warm water for 10-15 minutes several times a day can help reduce pain and inflammation, especially if hemorrhoids or an anal fissure is the cause. Topical Ointments: Over-the-counter hemorrhoid creams or anal pain relievers (e.g., hydrocortisone or lidocaine) can provide temporary relief. However, these should be used cautiously and not for long periods without consulting a doctor. High-Fiber Diet: To avoid constipation and straining, encourage your husband to consume a high-fiber diet (fruits, vegetables, whole grains) and drink plenty of water. This can help soften stools and reduce pain during bowel movements. Pain Relief: If the pain is severe, he can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen to manage the discomfort.
