Toileting and pain: May be related to constipation if present. Drink 2-3 liter water/ gatorade/ milk/ fluids a day, , fiber like in avocados, sweet potatoes, oats, bran. May also be due to spasm, hemorrhoids, fissure ( may have blood) or inflammatory( proctitis, Crohns) . The white discharge is likely mucus. Likely benign but f/u w/ gastroenterologist.
