I'm 12 and have hemroids I'm to embarrassed to tell my mom what should I do

Hi,

First off, are you absolutely sure that's what you have? Second, the odds are that your Mom has had hemmerhoids before and so you shouldn't be nervous about telling her, that's what Moms are for - to help. If you really need to you can ask someone you trust to take you to the doctor, it is completely confidential. Try not to 'wipe' so much as it will irritate you more, have a 20 minute warm water bath at night or a few times a day and eat more fibre foods such as whole grains, apples and hummus. Otherwise, you can purchase hemmerhoid cream at a pharmacy; though I would highly suggest telling your mom first.
