Hi,
Thanks for the query.
He seems to have 8nflammationof inner lining of intestine. .. ehich can be due to disturbed normal intestinal flora /infection ./suspected growth.
Reduction of weight was due to disturbance in food digestion leading to malnurishment.
You should consult an anirectal surgeon... few blood tests/examination of discharge/rectoscopy or endoscopy.
The exact diagnosis &sprcific treatment wpuld help him.
