Hello,
I am sorry to hear about discomfort, I am glad you approached the right portal for guidance.
Yellowish discharge from rectum since 8 months is a cause of concern and requires complete evaluation in order to get to the cause, once we know the right cause, then only we can proceed towards correct treatment.
If I were your examining doctor, I would like to know your details such as - age, dietary habits, lifestyle (sedentary or exertion), exercises, family history, similar complaints in past, associated fever/weight loss/ blood/pain and do a physical examination.
Based upon clues from the above details we can narrow down a few causes - whether infective or any abnormality in the intestine.
I would like you to see a gastroenterologist - the intestine doctor or a surgeon who has expertise in intestine diseases, who can examine you and help you get rid of these symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Jatin Bhatia, Radiation Oncologist
