Blackhead bumps around anus

Ok, First lemme start off by saying by butt usually sweats alot. Everyone once in a blue moon but anus will start itching, typically i scratch it and after washing really good it goes away after a day. Well yesterday i got a wild hair and decided to take a look at what the heck was making my arse itch. Using a mirror i was able to see some blackhead like bumps around my anus. I popped a couple of them and they just appeared to big big blackheads. They were very liquidy - I would compare them to a blackhead type substance. Shortly after i popped them the itchyness went away. The very next day i checked to see what was up - and no redness or ichyness was noticed.

Have any idea what i may be dealing with?

Well, I,m 67 now & have some blackheads & whiteheads. I noticed them when I was 45 yrs. old &managed to pop & squeeze them out(sometimes with a little blood because of the sensitive little veins around the anal ring muscles). A doctor told me it was most likely a result of when I wipe with toilet paper smearing feces into the pores around the anal ring. It,s best to go to a proctologist to get them cleaned out properly. You should give yourself an enema about twice a year or have a doctor do it. Be sure to use a mirror every once in awhile to SEE your ANUS, or get someone to check it for you. If you can't  afford a doctor, then give yourself an enema & use your fingers well lubbed to fish out any fecal matter from your Bowel ( which is just a small pocket of flesh that holds your feces until  you can use the toilet)  then put one fingertip into your anus &one on the side of the blackhead & push it out. Get someone you trust to do it for you, if you can't reach it yourself. Yes, it does hurt a little cause you know you're a sensitive *******! Good luck &  NO I am not a doctor. This info is from personal experience.  See a PROCTOLOGIST, it's much safer & ASK how much it costs &ask  what you need to do before you go to the doctors office appointment.

I live out in a wooded area and found a tick on my back. So, I decided to do a thorough check all over my body with a mirror because I am by myself.When I looked around my anus, I noticed the same kind of thing. I sqeezed as well, and a blackhead type substance came out. I can't seem to find any answers online reguarding what this could have come from, or be a symptom of. Please! If you get any real answers email me at ***@****  I am sort of freaked out about it, and if it's nothing to be concernded with cool, but if it's something that could be something serious...I need to know. I rarely see a physician due to a lack of finances and insurance...but if I must...I must.  I am so glad that there's Someone out there who has the same thing...it's somehow comforting to me.

That's insane, the exact same thing happened to me. I had a tick attached to my back so I decided to do a thorough check and found a blackhead like lump right by my anus, I'm afraid to squeeze it.. but I did pick at it a little and I'm fairly certain it is not a tick. I actually have a colonoscopy tomorrow so I am going to ask about it, but I'm just wondering if you ever found out what it was?
