Orange mucus in poo (pic attached)

[MoonminMama123]

Sorry for the tmi but just looking advice/reassurance really. Have severe HA and have an obsession with googling. Have had loose stools the past few days, but have noticed that my stools today have orange mucus in them. Just wondering has anyone else had this? Due to the HA I've lost my appetite so its definitely not something I've eaten.

Hello, my poop is exactly like yours, I have also not been able to find what it is, I have an appointment with GI doctor, its a long wait though. I am thinking of going private cause it is giving me anxiety too. Did you find the cause?

I get this sometimes as well, mainly just plain orange mucus when I, ahem, let it rip.. but I suffer from IBS caused by stress so it can be due to that. Are you stressed or do you have IBS symptoms along with it?

This has definitely been a stressful year for me, I have never been diagnosed with IBS and prior to this year had no worrying issues with digestion. my other symptoms are gas, random abdominal pains, I was constipated for a while but thankfully that resolved with a change in diet.

I have had this for years and definitely think it’s my IBS.

What's the doctor told you ? I have same case

It could be caused by bile acid malabsorption, gutscharity.org.uk/advice-and-information/conditions/bile-acid-malabsorption/

I have this, mine is caused by not having a gall bladder.

I thought this was going to be a baby nappy thread. Not someone taking a dump, photographing it and posting it on the internet

Hello :)
Did you find the cause? I have the same for the last 6 months. But I’m afraid to go check it :(

Hi did you ever get this investigated? I have the same

Hi did you ever get it looked at. I’m the same as you, too scared to go.

Did anyone find out what causes the mucus because the other day I had a poo that was just an nog and a whole load of mucus

It's normal to have mucus in your bowel. It's there to lubricate your bowel.
It's normal for it to get stained by the pigments in the food you eat....

@MoonminMama123 did you ever find out what caused it? Did it go away?

I'm sorry but this comment although written ages ago made me literally laugh out loud! Lot of people with orange mucus in their poop it seems 😂😂😂

I have it too I came across this 😂 must be common for a lot of us to have it. I do probably think it’s ibs related

I also had stool tested and a fit test for stool and all normal just mild inflammation due to Ibs if anyone comes and sees it again

Jesus this is one of those where my being way too fucking curious/nosey really backfires in my face

Me too. I suspect it’s related to the OP constipation.

I had this last week after eating stovies. Assumed it was just all the fat and carrot colouring mixing together 😂

Who tf d

Ug this up?

It's lubricant made by your gut to help the (very constipated) stool put.
Basically the poo is to hard and dry to pass by itself so needs the goop to help it slide out.

More fibre, fluids etc needed!

Please can we let this Zombie thread go down the pan !

Hi. I’m experiencing the same problem and waiting for GI appointment. Couldn’t put my mind in ease and constantly worrying about it. If anyone found the reason behind, pls update here

Hiya sorry about the details in advance BUT when wiping back side after doing number 2 is it normal for there JUST TO BE YELLOW/BROWNISH LIQUID /RESIDUE ON TOILET PAPER? And also what is that?
