1) Loose stool, increased frequency of stool, mucus in stool since long time are consistent with inflammatory bowel disease.
2) This disease typically affect large intestine with inflammation of inner layer of large intestine.
3) You mus undergo colonoscopy to confirm the condition, to check severity and extent of condition.
