Rectal discharge: Would seek medical attention within 24-48 hours at doctor/urgent care/ER, especially if there is blood . Could be constipation, food intolerance, H pylori,gastritis, gallbladder early autoimmune disease like ileitis (Crohns).Diverticulitis is rare at your age but there could be infection/abscess.
