Mucus thing: It may be related to something you ate or possibly so,etching structural like a polyp or material Ina diverticulum, a sac formed in the bowel. It may also have come from your vagina? I'm not sure how old you are but if this continues, be examined and consider a colonoscopy. All the best.
