A member asked:

After anal fissure 3 months ago, mucus started to appear in my stool. dr. did fecal calprotectin and hs crp blood tests. the reports are totally ok. now still sometimes i see mucus in stool with burning/pain after bowel. what should i do now?

My experience with uncomplicated anal fissures is that they're best treated & followed by a proctologist as this is their specialty. I find that gastroenterologists & colorectal surgeons don't get too enthusiastic about treating them.

Sounds like you have proctitis. May be part of Inflammatory Bowel Disease or, in Pakistan, a rectal infection. See a gastroenterologist
