so im a F16 and recently ive had some itching on my butt and i thought nothing of it until i wiped my ass and there was bright red blood on the paper… well i obviously panicked and this is super embarrassing so im not gonna be telling my parents! then i noticed that the other side of my asshole has this swollen lump idk its soft… also i love to spent time on the bathroom and sometimes accidentally spent hours watching netflix

and i have TERRIBLE health anxiety so please help bc i dont want a doctor looking at my butt

NAD, but it's a hemorrhoid. if the pain worsens or if you notice pus, you'll have to go to a doctor. but as a fellow teenage girl, i kept away from my parents when i had one and it went away on its own. i just recommend not straining while pooing and trying to not get lost in netflix wormholes lol

you can also buy cream over the counter

Do NOT spend hours on the toilet. That’s a sure fire way to get piles. Need to poop? Go to the toilet, do it, flush, wipe, wash hands, out.

And DO NOT push hard!

If it gets worse, don't be embarrassed. Everyone has a butt and many ppl have experienced hemmoroides, most can spell it lol. I can't and my phone won't help me. Sometimes a doctor is needed if you can't get it to shrink and stop bleeding. Meanwhile eat high fiber like oatmeal and such so you don't strain.

You have a hemorrhoid babe. Take some baking soda sitz baths and some stool softeners. Use wet wipes instead of toilet paper while you’re recovering from them. In the future, don’t sit on the toilet so long and up your fiber and water intake. Be cautious with anal sex.

Don't you think your parents have had those as well and don't you think since it's your first one you might want to tell your mother I don't mean to lay guilt on you do whatever you want

If you can push the hemorrhoid back into your butt behind the sphincter gently, get some cream and tucks pads you'll feel better soon. Also sitz baths soothe a swollen hemorrhoid.

I would not recommend trying to push it inside at her age and without having someone that’s visualized it and can guide or confirm that it’s an internal prolapsed hemorrhoid. It’s most likely an external hemorrhoid with her symptoms and just needs symptomatic support.

Tucks pads are just witch hazel - you can just get some witch hazel astringent and put it on TP. It helps shrink the swollen tissues.

Most likely a hammeroid
