Green Mucus In Bowel Movements, Fishy Odour, Growling Sound From Stomach. Cause Of Worry?

For the past few days I have notice a green mucous in my bowel movements that has a fishy odour. Other than some growling in the stomach/intestines and a sense of urgency for the bowel movement...there is no other symptoms (i.e. fever , pain etc). Is this a cause for concern or most likely a virus that will pass. Thank you.

Hi
As per your complaints you don't have watery or semisolid motion
Green mucus + Pain abdomen & urgency all indicates Amoebiasis
Anti-amoebic treatment is advised
Avoid - hotel diet, drinking water without pre-boiled
Advise - Clean your hands before each food
