Mucus: Fistula is a possibility. It is not uncommon for patients with crohn's;s disease and IBS to pass as described above. If there associated pain, tenderness, swelling, or purulent (pus) discharge than an infection may be present which should be promptly brought to your doctors attention.

White anal discharge: Call follow up with your gastroenterologist today may be mucus meaning a flare or may be due to infection since you have fistulas
