I've been dealing with a fissure for 5 years now and the pain is unbearable I've tried multiple hospitals but I'm really scared of surgery. Is there any hope for relief without going under the knife? What other options might work for long-term healing?

I've been dealing with loose motions since this morning, and even after having coconut water and an electrolyte solution, I'm not feeling any better. What else can I try to get some relief? Should I be worried about this lasting longer?

-It sounds like your stomach is still unsettled despite the coconut water and electrolyte solution. If the loose motions persist or you don't feel better soon, it might be helpful to consult a doctor to rule out any infections or other underlying issues.
