Cremagel Rectal Gel is a prescription medicine commonly used to treat anal fissures, which are small cuts or tears in the lining of the anus. These fissures can cause pain, discomfort, and irritation, especially during bowel movements.

This gel works by relaxing the muscles around the anal area and improving blood circulation to the affected tissue. Better blood flow helps the fissure heal faster and reduces associated symptoms such as pain and itching.

It is meant for external application only. Always apply it on a clean and dry area as directed by your doctor. Avoid excessive use, and follow proper hygiene practices before and after applying the gel.
