Exclamation HPV or something else?

I'm not sure what's wrong with me! My main concern is that I have a bunch of little bumps on my butt cheeks. They have been there for a couple months. They're a little reddish, but they don't hurt at all or itch and they aren't like blisters or anything. When they first appeared I just assumed they were like a razor burn/ingrown hair type of thing and ignored them but since then I've gotten several more of them as well as 1 down on my thigh (which also wouldn't be a huge suprise if it was an ingrown hair type of thing but again isn't irritated at all so i don't know how likely that is). Could that be all it is or could it be a kind of genital warts? I tried to look up pictures of HPV online but they were all white and more irregularly shaped... The reason I'm concerned this could be some kind of STD is that I have had unprotected sex with a poast boyfriend that I *trusted*only to find out later that he had sex with at Least 2 other girls during the time we were together. I have had an exam since then (about 5months after we broke up) and had a regular pap smear but no specific testing for STD's... so please help me!

Re: HPV or something else?

There is no 'test' for hpv. You can carry the virus inside your body for years before it shows symptoms. You do not need to have sex to contract HPV. It can be attained by rubbing, touching an infected person or by other public means. I would advise you to have ANY bumps appearing in that area checked IMMEDIATLEY by a GP or a dermatologist who can determine HPV. You do NOT want to let it go..because the surgery is excruciating. If you do have it, it may be in a stage now where it can be treated by pres****tion creams, etc. Good luck.
