Hi. I'm suffering from excruciating pain from an anal fissure. I was in the emergency last Saturday and the doctor there diagnosed me. He gave me a referral to a colorectal surgeon. I haven't heard back from the surgeon and the pain has kept me at home for the past week. I'm not able to go to work because I can't sit or stand or anything with the pain. There is nothing that will take it away and i feel so defeated at this point that I'm scared of what I may do. 

Im desperate for some relief. Please help.
