What Causes Constant Urge To Pass Stool And Mucus Discharge?
I am having the sensation like I need to have a bowel movement but then only mucus comes out. I have never heard of this before nor have I had this before. I have not been diagnosed with IBS and have been check for it in the past. I have recently lost 30 pounds with out trying and am getting concerned.
Hi, i do care for your concern. Your symptoms suggest of giardia infection. Taking a single dose of tinidazole along with antacid would help. however loosing 30 pounds is abnormal, i would advise to Consult your physician and to get investigated of large bowel pathology i.e IBD and ulcerative colitis. hope everything will be fine. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
