A bloody discharge that is foul smelling could be related to a few different conditions including: 1) hemorrhoids which can lead to mucous and also bleed; 2) inflammation of the rectum (known as proctitis); or a dermatitis of the skin around the anus. One cannot exclude colon cancer or colon polyps as a source of the bleeding without an examination. I notice that you are 52 years old and hopefully you have had a screening colonoscopy. I would advise that you see your healthcare provider to be assessed. Hope this helps.
