Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of getting a clear discharge from the anus on getting a steroid shot and getting an antibiotic.
The most probable cause can be not the steroid shot but the antibiotic as it changes the equilibrium of the intestinal bacterial flora.
I would advise in such a situation the following;
Stop the antibiotic and to get a changeover to another.
Get started on pro and prebiotics to correct the balance.
If the stool tests show some problem, get this too corrected and you will be fine.
I find this answer helpful
