Blood And Mucus In Stools Since Giving Birth, What This Could Be ?
Since giving birth 9 months ago I have had pain passing stools, a lot of the time blood comes out too when I wipe. For the past two weeks I have been passing stools with lots of mucus in and now I am having the problem when I think I need to go to the toilet and all I pass is mucus/gunk kind of stuff and my stools have become very narrow and few and far between. What do you think this could be?

thanks for choosing health care majic.Your symptoms points to some disturbances in your intestine.Either it could be simple infection or some ulceration disease.Get your self examined by a doctor,you will need stool examination,ultrasound and probably endoscopy later on.In mean time have more fibers in your diet,avoid spicy and heavy foods.Take more salads and vegetable soups.drink plenty of liquids.
