What Causes Bad Odour From Anus Post Anal Sex?

I'm experiencing some fishy odor from either my anus or the soft surrounding flesh; even a few hours after a shower and after wiping completely. Usually, I get this moistness around my anus that seems to be clear (like sweat) but its a bit sticky when I feel the skin and it smells stinky! I haven't seen a specialist so I'm not of much help other than I might have hemorrhoids and some sort of skin tag on my anus.. (possibly a fissure?) I havent had this problem my entire life until i started having anal sex and stomach (bm complications). Please help, so embarrassing!
