I'm using lignocaine 2 jelly for my anal fissure or piles like the doctor recommended. I'm a bit worried and curious about any side effects. Could this cause any problems I should be aware of while using it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Lignocaine 2% jelly is generally safe for short-term use to relieve pain from an anal fissure or piles. However, overuse or prolonged application may cause skin irritation, numbness, or allergic reactions in some people. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it's best to consult your doctor.

View allI've noticed this small bump under the skin near my anus recently. It's about the size of a pea and doesn't really seem discolored. I started feeling it a couple of days ago because it gets uncomfortable when I tighten around there. It doesn't hurt, just kind of feels off. I even took a picture just in case, but I'm not sure what it is. Also, no bloody stool or anything like that. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
A small, pea-sized bump near the anus can be a perianal hematoma, an anal skin tag, or a small external hemorrhoid, but it's essential to consult a surgeon

I had a sentinel skin tag removed surgically but my doctor didn't treat the anal fissure causing it. Now I'm worried the skin tag might come back or get worse. How do I handle this chronic fissure to prevent more issues?
If a sentinel pile is present, it too may be removed to promote healing of the fissure. This may be combined with either injection with Botox or sphincterotomy.
