Hi...
Welcome to healthcare magic.
You have long time history of sticky stool that may be because of food intolerance or intestinal parasites infection or other reasons.
Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.

Colonoscopy is helpful for further diagnosis.
Detail history and investigation give exact idea about problems.
I hope my guidance helpful to you..
