OK, there is no way to talk about this problem delicately or with much decorum. That said, I have an anal fissure that is absolutely killing me. Who would of guessed your bum could cause so much pain.The thing has waxed and waned for two years and I have lived with it. It has been so bad for the past two months that I am considering the surgery to have it repaired. Ideally I’d wait until the season was over, but don’t think I can wait til then with how I’m feeling now. (must have a low pain tolerance)
Anyone ever had one of these repaired?, (Lateral sphincerotomy). How long did your training suffer. What could you do first run, bike or swim?
P.S. I am a physician so understand the medical issues but am most concerned about the recovery issues and how long I’ll be down and out before I can resume training.
Thanks for any advice
