Bright, red blood in stool, 15, terrified?

Question 1
Bright, red blood in stool, 15, terrified?...  This is extremely embarrassing to ask, but anyway...

About a year ago I noticed a little blood on the toilet paper after I took quite a large poop, nothing major, it was just a little spot so I thought nothing of it.
I've always had difficulty passing a stool, and have usually had to strain really hard to get one out, causing quite a lot of pain. After I've done this, however, there is no pain whatsoever.
Over the past two weeks or so, I've had extra trouble passing a stool, due to straining so hard. After I've done, I noticed blood dripping in the toilet and bright, red blood on the toilet paper.
About an hour ago I took a very hard poop, and there was quite a lot of blood. I tried to minimize my straining as low as possible, and hardly didn't at all, but there was still blood.
I've looked into this I figure I either have an anal fissure, or hemorrhoids. I've felt around for a lump and there doesn't appear to be one on on my exterior. There's so pain or blood after I've passed a stool. Does this sound more like an anal fissure or an internal hemorrhoid?
I'm extremely terrified right now. Depending on which I've got, is it dangerous, and will it go away on its own? What changes in my diet do I need to take? I've tried drinking quite a lot of water and eating sources of fiber over the past couple of days to get my stools normal, but this hasn't worked so far. I don't want to tell my parents. I'm really hoping this will go away on its own, I'm just scared.
Thank you.
If worst comes to worst, and I have to tell my parents, I'll tell my mum. How can I tell her about this? What should I say?

Answers
1)   Could be a fissure or a hemorrhoid, but generally that blood is dark red. If it is bright red, and there is a lot of it, it could be an emergency. You should wake your parents right away and let them know. Don't hesitate. - John M

2)   Anal fissues are usually very painful. Since you do not have severe pain, it is likely hemmorhoids. Bright blood is a symptom of hemorrhoids.

You may want to consider a fiber supplement. Also, don't be scared to tell your parents and talk to your doctor. - Lesley Brown

3)   about it you can get information from here http://heansmd50.notlong.com/AAHN9nb - Sol Strawther

4)   You don't have anything serious. Constipation causes large, hard stools and stools of this nature cause painful bloody poops. The mildest thing to do is to take a magnesium mineral supplement with your meals and maybe at bedtime, and keep up the fiber and extra fluids. Magnesium citrate, glycinate or malate supplements draw fluid into the intestines. Its healthiest to take magnesium in a tablet combined with calcium at one part magnesium to two parts calcium. - formerly_bob

5)   sane thing happened to ;me....you have inside piles...bright red....I now drink chinese tea with Senna. just one half cup will do maybe twice a week. stops the straining..and really works. - F Briggs

Question 3
Is it possible that I have breast cancer?? PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!?...  I'm scared to mention this to my mom but I am just 14 and i have 2-3 lumps on each breast. Is there any way I can get rid of them?

Answers
1)   You should use nolvadex, it is the best about it you can get information from here http://heansmd46.notlong.com/AA3iYdn - Sol Strawther

2)   There is a very small chance you have breast cancer unless you have a family history of it, but if you are worried, you have to tell your mom so she can take you to a doctor! It is probably nothing, but sometimes catching cancer early on is what saves lives! There is really no other option unfortunately, but don't worry, the doctor's won't be as bad as you think. - D Smith

3)   The risk of a 14 year old getting breast cancer in one breast is so low that it is statistically zero.

If possible, the risk of having it in both breasts is even lower.

Breast cancer occurs IN the breast tissue not On your breasts.

What you are describing is NOT breast cancer but could be anything from pimples to bug bites.

Talk to your mother or school nurse and get whatever the problem is atended to. - Tarkarri

4)   The lumps you are feeling are normal breast development. Many people have normally lumpy breasts Breast cancer is very very rare in teens and would not show up in both breasts. Next time you o to the doctor ask to be shown how to do a breast exam so you can learn what is normal.

I'm a breast cancer survivor. - knittinmama

Answers
1)   every time you think about it wash w/ soap and water and do not touch your face w/ hands or fingers ---EVER - irishkween614

Question 5
Ovarian cysts? Ovarian cancer?...  5 years ago I was told I had HPV and some of the cells were cancerous. since then i get multiple utis and am now having pain in the right side of my pelvis. Its like a sharp stabbing pain. Could this be more cysts? Should i be checked for ovarian cancer? Just looking for opinions.

Answers
1)   HVP has been linked to cervical cancer.

UTI's can lead to a kidney infection.

Ovarian cysts are fairly common.

Until you see a Dr and get it checked out you will have no idea if you are dealing with any of these conditions or something else entirely. - Tarkarri

2)   See a doctor and get tested for ovarian cancer, just to be sure. Ovarian cancer usually doesn't have any symptoms when its treatable. The sharp stabbing pain sounds a lot like cysts. Hpv can spread and cause ovarian cancer But, I'm not a doctor or anything. What do I know? - Ali

3)   Yes, you should be getting bi annual check ups since you are a high risk case. There may be a chance you have polycystic ovary syndrome. - Queen of Night
