A member asked:
I had an appendectomy aug. 25th, is it normal to have mucus on soft stools? i've had it 3 days in a row. 1st time was 2 days after appendectomy?

If your bowel movement and stool are normal at this time, more than 2 weeks post op, you have nothing to concern. However, if you now have mucus at this time, it is less likely related to the appendectomy.
