Suggest Treatment For Severe Diarrhea
Question: I have had diarrhea for 2 days, I still have it but it is clear mucos
Brief Answer:
see a doctor
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question.
Diarrhea with mucus is often a sign of an infection that is more serious than just a typical viral infection that causes diarrhea or something you might get from bad food.
Also the leaking out is not a good sign.
I believe that you need to see a doctor and have the stool tested for parasites and get a stool culture. You need to know the cause to get appropriate treatment.
Keep hydrating and see a doctor as soon as possible
I hope you are feeling better very soon,
