What Does Clear Liquid Discharge From Butt Indicate?

I am female, but I have a male friend that has a problem. He is young, a virgin, and eats healthy with plenty of exercise. He noticed clear liquid coming out of his butt and didn t know what happened or why it was happening. He thought he was pooping, but the liquid appeared to be clear.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history about your boyfriend who is young, virgin, started getting a clear liquid out of his butt not knowing the reasons.
The most probable reasons for such an occurrence are as follows:
- There can be inter-gluteal dermatitis. In this condition, the skin in between the buttocks get inflamed, cracked and weeps clear fluid.
- Tubercular abscesses and specific infection can cause the same clear fluid output.
I would advise him the following in such a situation:
- Get a clinical examination done from a General Surgeon and have a proper diagnosis.
- A course of an antibiotic and metronidazole will help a lot.
- Do not apply any ointments.
- Liquid povidone iodine locally.
- Keep the area dry.
I find this answer helpful
