Anal fissure+itch+pile HELP
I have been suffering from Anal fissure and itchiness for 4 years.It happened after my first son's birth. 1.5 years later he was born, I started having itchiness and a small cut on anus and that cut grew bigger and deeper.
I have tried using cortisone cream and all sorts of creams but it made the itchiness worse.
After a couple years of self medicating and trials and errors and also the arrival of our 2nd son I started having increased problems.
Now I have more than 3 fissures that are itchy and sometimes bleed when I scratch.
When I checked the area with a mirror I also noticed that I have a lump (pile). And on the lump there are couple of cuts that are often itchy.
The problem bothers me so much it used to wake me up at night or getting depressed about it.
I came across with this website and when I tried Remedy Finder for itchiness it suggested me to take Sulpher so I went out and bought 30ch pellets from the local health food store and I have been taking 3 pellets a time, 3 times a day for about a week and it seems to work for my insomnia due to the itchiness but it's not healing anything.
If anyone could help me that would be great. I am at the end of the rope here.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
You must avoid creams and lotions totally, homeopathy believes that they cause much worse damage by suppressing the condition.

Have you used homeopathic medicines before? If so what, and what homeopathic potencies did
you use?
- I have been using homeopathic medicine (Sulphur 30ch) for about a week. I take 3 pellets 3
times a day.
Please answer the following questions in a descriptive manner after careful analysis and
recollection of previous experiences and happenings.
1. Describe your main suffering?
- Intence itchiness around the anus and fissures which won't close and itchy.
- A pile that's itchy at times.
2. What other physical sufferings do you have in your body?
- Generally I am prone to itchiness of the skin.
- Allergy to dust mites. (I get bumps that are itchy and I have runny nose and sneezing in the
morning.)
- On my right arm, there is a small patch that is very dry sort of flaky and sometimes itchy when
I scratch it bleeds.
- Constipation.
- Itchy scalp. Dry dandruff.

3. What mental sufferings / feelings do you have associated with your physical sufferings?

- Feels unclean having have to scratch all the time.
- Angry and frustrated that it's not fair that I have all these problems.
4. What exactly do you feel when you are at your worst? Describe the sensation in your own
words.
- I don't want to scratch because I know it will make it worse but I can't help myself. I feel angry
and frustrated when I am scratching and by scratching it gives me some sort of high and I feel
better for a moment until the pain comes and itchiness worsens. At that point, I feel miserable
and depressed.
5. When did it all start? Can you connect it to any past event or disease?
- Itchiness on my arm started about 6 months after my son's birth 6 years ago. Also I noticed that I couldn't wear anything with wool anymore around that time because they irritate my skin. I was wearing woolen sweaters no problems up until then. About a year after my son's birth I went back to my parents' house for a visit and from the travelling and the dietary change I got constipated and when I finally went, there was a itchiness after so I rubbed the area with toilet paper. The itchiness stayed and after a couple of days, I noticed a cut. Ever since then, the cut got deeper and bigger and itchiness got worse. It seemed it got worse especially before and during my periods and when I am constipated. My constipation got really bad when I had to take 3 cycles of antibiotic in one winter about 3 years ago and because of the constipation, my itchiness hit new low.
During my pregnancy with my 2nd son, itchiness got much worse, and by the 3rd trimester it started affect my sleep. And then my son was born. While I was on pain medications after C-section I could sleep and I wasn't itchy but the itchiness eventually came back and sleeplessness came back as well as I stop taking those pain medication.
