Should I See A Doctor If Having Mucous Or Fungus In Stools?

I'm a 32yr old male and around 6ft tall. My question is whether I should see my doctor about my stools - when I wipe there is often a yellow mucus left on the tissue, occasionally there are small traces of bright red blood, and today when I passed a stool there was a lot of visible white fungus/mucus on the stool itself.

Hi..

Welcome to healthcare magic.

According to your complain you have problem of more mucus in stool or fungas that may be because of infection of fungas or parasitic infection or irritation bowel syndrom other reasons...
Stool examination test is helpful to detect any infection present or not...
Complete blood cell count and microscopic examination is helpful.
Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
Start a treatment as per reason behind it..

Thank you
