Homoeopathic medicines like Aesculus hippocastanum, Causticum, Graphites, Hydrastis, Ignatia amara, Lachesis, Natrum muriaticum, Nitric acid, Paeonia officinalis, Ratanhia peruviana, Sepia, Sulphur, Silicia, Thuja, are helpful in this condition when selected on the basis of totality of symptoms. Surgery is required if the fissure does not heal with medication or it becomes the cause for secondary symptoms- the so-called complications.
