Needs work up and management

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and i understand your concern. Clear liquid discharge fromr ectum at age of 82 should be evaluated for incontinence and rect infections like proctitis or hemorrhoids. You need to visit a doctor, they will assess the rectum area by rectal examination and advise some work up for assessing the rectal tones and other functions and analyse the discharged fluid and then manage accordingly.

Use more fibers in diet and more liquids. see if it helps. let your doctor clinically correlate and then manage accordingly. I hope it helps. take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
