Hello,
Passage of clear discharge from anus could be due to inflammatory bowel disease or irritable bowel syndrome. I suggest you to consult a gastroenterologist for clinical assessment, colonoscopy and relevant investigations for diagnosis and thus management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
