What are the side effects to using numbing medicine for anal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Numbing the area: Before anal intercourse will make things less painful, possibly less pleasureable but also you could sustain serious injury/damage and not be aware of it at the time. Generally not a good plan at all.

My GP diagnosed me with a anal fissure 3 weeks ago. He recommended a numbing cream and keep the area clean. It went well until today. All of a sudden the pain is constant & uncomfortable. Neither sitting or lying down in any position helps.
