A member asked:
Chronic diahrea,mucus in stool, urgent and frequent bowel movements, abdominal pain. colonoscopy normal and healthy. ibs ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This may be IBD: mucus and diarrhea is usually a phenomenon of inflammation of bowel. The colonoscope is designed to examine the colon for tumor and can reach terminal ileum but can visualize above it. A camera pellet swallowed can visualizse the entire small bowel to determine if there is inflammation of SB. If symptoms persist the GI physician should evaluate small bowel.
