A member asked:
Why does mucus often come out of my anus after a bowl movement, and why is there a small amount of bright red blood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IBD: I am suspicious you have some form of inflammatory bowel disease, an autoimmune disorder that affects the intestinal tract, both small and large bowel. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are forms. You need to seek an evaluation. I may be wrong, but even so you should not be passing bright red blood. Good luck.
