Can i use neosporin for an anal fissure?

If it helps Yes.: Fissure causes severe anal spasm result in the pain, plenty of fluids, high fiber diet , local care, will help . Ointment that releases spasm like 0 .6 % nitroglycerine will help, speak to your doctor.

Would not: it is not uncommon to be allergic to this product. This may just make it worse, if that is the case
