I've had chronic loose stools on & off for about one year after i was diagnosed for piles & there is white gooey stuff that comes with it. wt is it?

Probably mucus: First it is important to know that we are actually born with hemorrhoid tissue so they are actually a normal part of our anatomy. The inner lining of the anus and rectum is called mucosa and when it gets aggravated or inflamed they can produce extra mucus to try and soothe the situation. If there has also been bleeding you may have proctitis, inflamed rectum, and would need to see an MD
