Experiencing Anal Discharge with a Colostomy Bag

I have never had it, but I guess I was supposed to. I have had my colostomy for 3 years. I can get it reversed, but I am terrified of going back to the hospital. I now have hemorrhoids, I think, because I have feces stuck in my anal tract. I get a pressure every time I have to have a bowel movement in the bag. Has anyone ever heard of this?

I get anal pressure like that. It's kind of like ghost limb syndrome. You're not hooked up, but the muscles in that area don't know it.

Hi there, even though you have an ostomy, if you still have your rectum, you will pass mucus and sloth. Your rectum is constantly making mucus and sloth. It's the body's natural way.

I have to wear a pad and change it a few times a day in my underwear because of this clear, spit-like fluid that keeps leaking out of the anus, and I really want it to stop, but I don't know how to get it to stop. Does anyone know if there's a way to stop this?

Aqua, no, there is no way to stop it; well, the only way is to have your rectum removed. As I posted earlier, your rectum will continue to make mucus and sloth.

My Ostomy Journey: Jearlean | Hollister

I went for 4 years with no discharge, then had botched gallbladder surgery, and lo and behold, mucus streams out on a regular basis. I find that if every time I go to the bathroom I forcefully "shit" mucus, it prevents insane leakage during the day.
