A member asked:
Causes for white mucus wrapped around stool? looks like cotton, also had white pieces that looked like tear drops?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
?IBD: There's no situation where mucus around your stool is normal. I'm concerned you may have an inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's or ulcerative colitis. See your doctor. In the meantime, eat right, stay hydrated, and get your rest. Good luck.
