Sounds like a hemorrhoid. If it keeps on bothering you have your parents take you to the doctor. Also, there are over the counter treatments such as Preparation H that will help.

It is difficult to know for sure what might be causing you to have bleeding, but judging based on your age, it may very well be the start of your period. Hemmoroids generally are accompanied by itching and discomfort when you are sitting. The fact that it is a continuous bleed also may point to the beginning of your period. I think you should let someone know about this because it may be something that requires medical attention..... it's very difficult to diagnose health questions without knowing the details of the situation. It's always better to be safe and just double check with a doctor after having an appointment. Good luck!

You should see a doctor, but don't worry -- it probably isn't a hemmorrhoid. The symptoms you describe sound like the same thing I had about a month ago. I went to the doctor and he told me that I had a small tear near my rectum that was probably caused by hard stools (poop). He gave me some topical ointment for the tear and advised me to get more fiber in my diet. The bleeding stopped within 24 hours, and the extra fiber in the diet did the trick -- no more hard stools.

Just keep it clean, your bottom should heal in a week or two.
If necessary wash your bottom well after each bowel movement. It will help just by keeping it clean and not wiping till you are raw.
If you dont get better in a week or two contact your family medical doctor.
It never hurts to eat natural foods as well, food rich in fiber are great.
Hope this is clear enough.
