I've been dealing with anal fissures for about 8 months now and I'm really nervous about surgery. Can you suggest some food habits or lifestyle changes that might help? Also, what are my other options if I want to avoid surgery?

I'm dealing with IBS and was diagnosed with depression about 1.5 years ago. I've been taking fludac 20, but recently I've been having bowel movements 6-7 times a day, and they're fragmented. It's not like diarrhea but it's been going on for 5 days with some stomach cramps. Usually, taking metrogyl 400 clears it up in a day, but this time it's not helping. I started taking norflox tz yesterdaytwice dailyand I'm feeling a little better, but there's still this urge for bowel movement and some cramps. Any thoughts on what might be happening or what else I should do?
continue the same medication

I'm really struggling with lax lesophagitis and pangastritis for the past decade, and I've been on PPIs for about the same amount of time. The side effects are becoming a bit too much to handle. Should I think about surgery as an option, or just stick it out with the PPIs?
Surgery may be an option for you if your symptoms are not well-controlled with PPIs and if you're experiencing intolerable side effects. However, continuing with medications and making lifestyle adjustments may also improve your condition
