What causes excess mucus in stool and what can be done at home as well as dr visit ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There are many causes of increased mucous in stool-irritable bowel syndrome is a common cause. It can also be due to inflammation. You should see a gastroenterologist to see what the cause is in your case so that proper treatment can be rendered. Treatment can only be prescribed by finding out the correct diagnosis so see a GI doctor. Best of luck to you!!
