Hi welcome to health care magic
You are according to history having functional bowel problem leading constipation....
Small amount of mucus can present in stool when high fatty diet taken...
If needed stool examination can be done
Daily drink two to three litre water
Avoid high fatty meals
Green leafy vegetables, fruits, fiber foods, wheat bran, carrot etc taken more
Regular exerise done
You can be given digene like syrup for relief from acidity and gas
If no improvement than USG done to exclude organic cause
Consult physician for examination
Take care
