Is it normal for twelve year olds to have hemmorhoids?

Answer 1

Of course! Im 10 and i have one. Its normal for anybody to have one. Now you see, hemorrhoids are from poop. well not exactly that. do you have trouble pooping? if you push hard when you are in the toilet doing #2 that is what causes a hemorrhoid. a hemorrhoid is a vain the puffs up when you "try" too hard. it does not bleed if it is it is out side of the anal way. But if it is inside it may bleed while passing a poop. go to your doctor so he can prescribe you a cream. it doesnt hurt if it is an outsider, not so sure about the insider though??!!

Hope I Helped!

Answer 2

Hemorrhoids are less common in children, especially as young as twelve. However, factors like chronic constipation, excessive straining during bowel movements, or a diet low in fiber can contribute to hemorrhoids at any age. It's important for the child to see a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Answer 3

No, it isn't normal. That is rather young for hemorrhoids.
