Suggest Medication For Lumps Appearing Around The Anus

I have a few lumps around my anus, and they tickle now and then? What are they? Also I have a rash of red kind of circles on my backside and groinal area, I think it could be ringworm but I'm not sure. Do the two have a connection? Could this be an STD??

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely due to fungal infection. Both can be the same. If you send a picture of the affected part then it will be more helpful in analysing the condition. In case of fungal infection using anti fungal ointments/creams like terbinafine (lamisil) or miconazole for local application will be helpful. Keep the area dry. Use loose and cotton underwear. If this appeared after unprotected sex then it is better to rule out STDs by doing a STD panel test also.

Hope his may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
