See your CR surgeon: Sorry to hear this. This is too complex to adequately discuss in this forum, so please make contact with your colorectal surgeon immediately and schedule a consultation. Recruit the help of your primary physician if necessary to make said appointment. Good luck.

A member asked:

I've had some doctors on HEALTHTAP say that small drops of mucus like fluid coming from the urethra after bowel movement are just prostatic fluid. Can it also be discharged before a bowel movement, such as holding stool in because of no nearby toilet?
