I don't know what the heck it is

I have about 4 purple small pumps around my anal area. they itch sometimes, but they seem like they're changing color and they haven't itched as much, but they're still there. They only get aggravated when i walk. i've never had anal sex so i don't think its an std but i dont know what it is! any ideas?

Hey just get tested. I know that sounds like a cliche' but it will put your mind at ease. I've never done Anual but I do break out sometimes in that area.

you need to go and be seen and get a proper exam done. these sound more like hemorrhoids than herpes but the peace of mind from finding out for sure what is going on is helpful.
