Myovin

No, Myovin Rectal Ointment does not cure fissures. It reduces inflammation of mucous membrane and skin. It also helps to reduce irritation, pain and itching associated with anal fissures, thus providing symptomatic relief.

Fissures usually heal within a few weeks. But if your fissures do not improve then this could be due to the poor oxygen supply to the area being treated which further slows down the healing process. As a result, these fissures fail to heal and continue to get worse. You should consult a doctor immediately if you have been facing issues for a duration longer than a few weeks.

You must take a fiber-rich diet such as vegetables, fresh fruits and whole grains if you have fissures. Drink plenty of water and avoid taking alcohol. This will ensure that your stools are soft and easy to pass. You can also take laxatives or fiber supplements if you are facing issues with digestion. Your doctor will suggest ways to avoid constipation and thereby promote healing of fissures.

No, spicy foods do not cause fissures. But, they can irritate the fissures and worsen your symptoms. Therefore, it is advised that you avoid taking spicy foods if you are facing issues with your fissures.

Follow your doctor’s instructions before using Myovin Rectal Ointment. Apply a small amount of the ointment to the affected rectal area as directed. If this is to be used inside the rectum, attach the rectal applicator onto the tube. Insert the applicator gently and to full extent into the rectum. Gently squeeze the tube to deliver the medication while withdrawing it.

Fissures usually heal within a few weeks. But, if they persist for longer than 4 to 6 weeks, they are termed as chronic fissures. Please consult your doctor without any delay if you have been noticing fissures for longer than 4 weeks.

Do not cover the area being treated with Myovin Rectal Ointment with a bandage, as this may increase absorption of this medicine and increase the side effects. Do not use more than what is recommended to relieve your symptoms faster. Using more than what is advised will only increase the side effects. Let your doctor know if you are planning to conceive.
