I've had a chronic anal fissure for the past 11 months that keeps coming back whenever I pass hard stool, even though it heals sometimes with laxatives. The doctor said it's an anterior fissure. Is there any way to heal this completely without surgery? I really want to avoid surgery but it keeps recurring when I stop laxatives

Yes, it's possible to heal a chronic anterior anal fissure without surgery, even if it's recurring. The key is to address the underlying cause, which is often hard stools and straining during bowel movements, and to manage the symptoms effectively.

My wife Rita Datta is 58 and from Kolkata. She's been dealing with indigestion and loss of appetite, which has led to a lot of weight loss. A gastroenterologist at Peerless Hospital suggested an USG, and the report showed a large mass pushing her left kidney and spleen. They recommended a CT scan, which we did, and the gastrosurgeon advised immediate surgery. We've attached all the reports could you take a look and let us know what you think? We're really worried and not sure what the next steps should be

I can understand your concern. You haven't attached any reports as such with this question here. Also, why did you change doctors? And if immediate surgery is required, then i think you should get the surgery done. Consult a gastroenterologist in person for further evaluation and management
