Was wondering if after you've had an anal fissure how diffcult a rectal exam was for you? Meaning we're they painful and make you sore afterward.

I remember my OB/GYN doing the occult rectal test and then being very sore for a few days afterwards because of the irritation.

and also even after your fissure has healed and your diet has improved along with keeping BM's soft does your rectum still feel the uncomfortable spot where the fissure original was with the digital rectal exam?
