Its hard to say what's going on exactly but you need to see a doctor to have it checked it out. It could be any number of things that may very well be physical. If your family is preventing you from getting needed medical care and are abusive as you say you could call Child Protective Services and they could insure they this stops and you get needed medical care. This would be the link for your state:
