I've been dealing with a fissure issue and my homeopathy doctor prescribed oral meds along with liquid drops for sitz baths. Just wanted to check if this treatment approach sounds right or if surgery might be needed down the line. The discomfort's been bothering me and I'm not sure how effective these remedies are long-term

Homeopathy and sitz baths may help mild cases, but chronic fissures usually need surgery like LIS or laser. Track symptoms and pain.

Is this level something to be concerned about, or is it within a normal range? Her total bilirubin is 1.14, with direct bilirubin at 0.32 and indirect bilirubin at 0.82.
