A member asked:

How to know if my anal fissures are healed? i don't have pain nor bleeding, should i rest my mind and stop worrying?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I would: and keep your stools soft with colace (docusate sodium) so you don't have to strain when having bowel movement. Stop worrying. It sounds healed.
