A member asked:

Bowel issues for 5 days. urge to go,then gas happens with a few squirts of yellowish brown diareah . mucousy look wiping. sound like colon cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely infection: presence of this type of diarrhea reminiscent of c.difficile infection. The normal microbiome of the colon protects against many forms of inflammation by inducing Fox P3 regulatory cells than minimize inflammation and prevents various forms and degrees of colitis from appearing. Should such inflammation appear mucousy yellowish diarrhea can be seen. Colonoscopy if not performed may be indicated
