What Could Be Cause Of Having Clear Discharge From Bottom Of Child?
My eight year old son has been having clear discharge from his bottom. He calls it bottom sweat and is always checking to see if he s messed his pants. Tonight we finally saw it in his underwear and it s a clear jellylike substance. I would almost think it was semen except it s in the back of his underwear.

get the substance tested in a lab if you are worried. if there is any other complaints like crying while passing urine, or difficulty in passing stools etc. sometimes children do pass this as they are preteen and on the verge of nearing puberty. needs a bit of reassurance
