What Causes Jelly Like Farts In Children?

Hello, my 5 year old daughter did two farts this evening, and both resulted in a discharge from her bottom. The first was clear with some white specs in it and the second was like clear jelly. Can you advise what this is and what causes it. She has developed a blocked nose today and has recently completed a course of penicilin for tonsilitis.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello. I just read through your question.
This is most likely caused by swallowed mucus produced by her illness. It is not something to be overly concerned about.
I find this answer helpful
