Hello,

You wouldn't by change have hemorrhoids? http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/hemorrhoids/index.htm

There are creams available for this without a prescription. Don't be afraid to go to a doctor to have it checked!! I know you may feel funny having someone look at it, but just tell the doctor when you meet them that you are nervous/scared and they will help you through the examination. (Are your stools soft, moist or do you notice they are too hard?)

Best, Hope
