    I had a really bad anal fissure years back. Ended up having to have 2 separate surgeries. Now if I do any type of sitting down activity, biking, rowing, etc. I get hugely swollen and sore in the entire area around my taint. Would love to bike again, but it’s just not going to happen for me.

      Hang in there! I had my entire rectum removed and couldn’t fathum the thought of riding a bike.

      But 10 years later I decided to give it a shot and now I bike all the time… Thousands of kilometers this past year!

      Healing did take years, so don’t give up. In the interim, I did get an e-scooter so I didn’t have to sit 👌
