Dear friend,
The problem you facing is IBS. Mucous discharge may seen frequently in IBS. And you have bloody episode after spicy food then you should control diet. But blood is continue even after diet control then its a thing to be worried. As acute episode may present with sever bloody diarrhoea. And it needs a prompt treatment.
Get well soon.
