Hi, I’m new to the forum and looking for any advice regarding rectal mucus following an end colostomy.

Pretty much a common issue and seems to taper off... In the beginning was pretty active...

I’ve got used to it but this weekend it had some streaks of blood in it that has worried me a bit. I was hoping someone might be able to advise if considered “normal” or not

I mostly get the rectal mucus at night when sleeping. I put a gauze between my butt cheeks before I go to bed.

I usually get it only about every 10 days or so but haven’t had any for 3 weeks except for the liquid mucus with some blood streaks that I had on Saturday so I’m a bit freaked out about it
