Heya friend
Here is the answer

It's very simple
One thing that helps reduce the repulsion between protons within the nucleus is the presence of any neutrons. Since they have no charge they don't add to the repulsion already present, and they help separate the protons from each other so they don't feel as strong a repulsive force from any other nearby protons.

Hope it helps

Answer:

They do, but they are constrained by a stronger force.

Explanation:
they do repel but the strong nuclear force overcome the repelling force because the strong binding nuclear force is much much stronger than the electrostatic repulsive Force

The strong nuclear force, while short range, operates within the nucleus between protons and neutrons. At this level, it is stronger (demonstrably) than the electromagnetic force that would repel positively charged protons.

For a more sophisticated answer, you are going to have to find physicist, at least someone better informed than I am.
