YES
I have an anal fissure that was painful and produced a lot of pus. It was also getting very uncomfortable sitting in a hard bath tub 3 or 4 times per day. I had a good piece of foam 1 foot square and 2 inches thick that i thought would make my sitting more pleasant. Surprisingly the foam also acted as a sponge and appears to flush the salt water both ways through the fissure. The first time i did this the amount of faeces that came out of the fissure was extreme. It's day 3 now and the abscess has virtually disappeared and very little pain.
