Why Am I Having Painless Bumps Around Anus Even Not Having Anal Sex Recently?

The last time I had anal sex was like, 4 years ago and it was with my husband. No one else ever did that to me, but today, I found a few painless bumps around my anus. I have no idea what they could be. They don't hurt or itch, they aren't oozing. I'm scared. Can I get an anal std from not having anal sex?

Hi,
Painless bumps around the anus can be due to evolving infection. It can become painful in future. Please avoid scratching the area and get yourself examined by a doctor. Antibiotics can be taken if it is confirmed to be an infection.
