Have Masses In Stool Covered With Mucus. Cause?

Hi, I am a 39 yr. old female. For last 4 months, I ve had half inch cube like masses in my stool . The cubes are covered with a yellow/green mucus membrane and now the mucus is covered with a bright red blood membrane. The mass floats. The inside of the cubes is a chalky substance much like a white tylenol tablet cut in half. I have sharp and constant pain in my left colon area after they pass. What is possible cause? My thought is that medications which I take in tablet form are not breaking down. Thank you for your expertise.

It could be suggestive of colitis. Would suggest you to get stool examination done if the symptoms persist.
Take care
