He had similar episode two years back which was treated with conventional medicines. Now he had burning and bleeding after passing stools. The burning pain would last for four to five hours. He had hard and constipated bowel movements. After passing stools it would be difficult to sit for two to three hours. He was diagnosed as fissure in ano along with sentinel piles by a general surgeon. The surgeon had suggested him surgery for treatment. Instead the patient started with local homeopathy medicines since past two to three weeks. He had taken the conventional medicines for a month before that.
