my medical library advises to use stool softeners (docusate sodium) and over-the-counter bulk agents containing psyllium husk. contrary to what some might think, bulkier stool is needed because it conforms better to the anal lining and is less damaging to the cut.
over-the counter creams with steroid component may help healing. also nitroglycerine ointments.
part of the pain is from muscle spasm, so relaxing the sphincter is important (including medicinally). using warm water to relax the area (anal canal pressures decrease in water at 40 C) should help.
if this doesn't work, the fissure might be chronic.
