2.BOTOX TREATMENT:This treatment is used for patients who do not get better with medication but need surgery. It is the recommended treatment method for patients who are reluctant to undergo surgery. Botox is injected into the over-contracted sphincter in the anal fissure, resolving the muscle spasm and thus allowing the tear to heal.
3 SURGERY: Surgery is the process of cutting the over-contracted sphincter muscle.
WHAT IS BOTOX TREATMENT:
Botox is a type of chemical substance that has been used for years to paralyze muscles. With the help of this substance, muscles are paralyzed for 4-6 months.
