What Causes Constipation Along With Brown Mucus In Stools?
Hi. I m homosexual and I ve been sexually active lately. But it s been 3 days that I ve had bowl movements and my anus hurts before durning and after my bowel movements. The stool has some type of green and brown mucus (I assume the brown is because of the stool) my partner has been tested for and STD and he came out clean of any std. I haven t been tested.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of constipation along with brown mucus in stools which can occur due to many reasons and it is extremely important to find out the exact cause. It seems to be due to inadequate fibres in diet and due to food intolerance. Need not to worry. You should add laxatives in diet and you can apply esbogol as well around anal area opening. I would advise you to consult your physician or gastroenterologist and get examination done like complete blood count, stool examination, ultrasound scan of abdomen, and colonoscopy examination. Doctor may prescribe you traditional drugs like lactulose, milk of magnesia and cremaffin or bisacodyl tablets. You should start treatment after complete examination. Drink one spoon of honey in warm water daily.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
