Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Clear discharge from the rectum is nothing more than a mucus. Please note that intestines constantly produce the mucus to make stool passage easier. When the stool does not travel through intestines (due to constipation) or there is some inflammatory process inside, you may get lots of mucus instead of stool.
So the most probable reason of such symptom is constipation. Other are bacterial infection, inflammatory bowels disease or even colon cancer.
I suggest you to start with diet improvement. Please increase fiber rich products and mineral water intake. Start probiotic supplementation.
If this wont help, stool test and colonoscopy should be done.
Hope this will help. Feel free to ask further questions.
Regards.
