General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello, I really appreciate your concern. If your daughter is having chronic constipation and have to exert pressure during defecation, then she is more likely to have hemorrhoids (piles). In this case you should consult a surgeon and have anal and rectal examination done. Blood and mucous in stool may be due to intestinal dysentery. It may be associated with abdominal cramps. In case of your daughter it is unlikely cause.
Hope my answer has solved your query. Take Care.
Thank you.
