What Does Mucus In Stool Indicate?
I have been noticing mucus like stuff showing up on m toilet paper after I wipe my bottom. It usually occurs when I don t even have a bowel movement. I have also found it in my underwear in the past. This morning I noticed a red clot like substance in the toilet after I peed. I felt it come our of my rectum. What could this be? What should I do?

Hello,
Mucus and blood coming out of anus can be a sign of hemorrhoids or anal fissure. I would advise you to get yourself checked by a surgeon as soon as possible. He may do a to properly examine the area. Meanwhile you should make sure to avoid constipation and drink lots of water.
I hope that answers your question.If you have any further questions please feel free to write.
Thank you and wishing you good health.
