Hello! I have a question about about my body. I have bumps on my perineal near the anus. It has been there for about 2 months now when I noticed it I was picking at it and it started bleeding. I do not have health insurance and im so scared. What could this be?

Hello,
It could be an abscess or fistula. Consult a general surgeon and get it drained. As of now, you can take laxatives like lactulose to smoothen your bowel movements.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
