Overview Xylocaine NF Cream
Lidocaine cream, a dual-action topical analgesic, treats anal fissures—tears in the anal lining. It soothes pain, inflammation, itching, and discomfort during bowel movements, targeting anal discomfort. The cream's vasodilatory properties promote fissure healing. Always follow your physician's prescribed dosage and duration. Apply to a clean, dry area, washing hands thoroughly before and after application. Avoid finger application. Discontinue use only after consulting your doctor; abrupt cessation may worsen symptoms. Generally well-tolerated, minor anal irritation is a rare, usually self-limiting side effect. Persistent irritation warrants medical consultation. Keep the cream away from eyes, nose, and mouth; rinse with water and seek medical advice if accidental contact occurs. Report worsening infection, increased redness, or irritation to your doctor immediately, and cease usage.
