Q: Small lumps near anal area?

Hi,sorry if this is posted in the wrong forum Smile

Recently (around 3 days ago,) after shaving, I had found the inner parts of my bum-cheeks, near the anal area, have grown small lumps which are currently irritating. I had also found that along the genital area have turned slightly red and there seems to be a line the bumps throughout the vaginal lips. Also, my anus seems to hurt?
I am not sexually active, and I am a girl glance

Thankyou

These small bumps can be genital warts due to HPV infection years ago transmitted through sexual activity.
Actually, HPV infection with genital warts virus can be asymptomatic (without symptoms) for months or years after transmission.
Another reason could be a frequent genital shaving that can cause side effects such as a rash, itchiness and small red bumps.
Skin in this region is very sensitive and easily irritated.
