Hello and welcome in"Ask a Doctor".
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I have seen carefully your picture and I think these skin lesion in your anus could be a STI.
So, I suggest to do a physical examination by a ID specialist and must do some lab exam for HSV (1+2) IgG, HPV and syphilis (RPR_VDRL and TPHA).

Hope I have answered your query.
