Mucus in "poop" and constantly bloated!

[SouthernChick334]

So, it's like this. I'm a 16 year old female. For some time now, I become very bloated but its released when i pass gas. It happens over and over during the day and seems to stop at night. I also have a mucus like substance in my "poop" and sometimes when I go to the bathroom thinking that I have to "poop" i end up just passing lots of gas and again some mucus like substance comes out. This has been going on for a couple of months now. Can someone feel me in please? Is this very bad?

Hey,
   It sounds like hemmorhoids. You need to soften your stool before you have rectal bleeding by taking over the counter colace (stool softeners ) or you need much more exercise and also, eat a salad for at least one meal a day. Once you have rectal bleeding it takes too long to heal. So, take care of it before you get more problems. Your poop is too hard so the body produces mucus to help it ease through the intestine. Research about hemmorhoids on the internet. If you don't take care of it, it may become a disease like colitis and others! I hope this helps.

HI,
   You need to see a doctor because you need to be tested for your difficulties. It sounds like an emergency and it is more serious. Please see a doctor before it's too late! I hope you feel better soon.

It sounds like bowel obstruction. Which is dangerous, you may also benefit from taking colace over the counter stool softener and adding some fiber to your diet. At walmart, there is drink mixes in the laxative aisle where you can get ice tea / lemonade mixes to add to gain more fiber in your diet.... however, you need to consult a doctor. Bowel obstruction can kill you if it's not taken care of. With nausea, it means that you have obstruction in the intestine somewhere higher (in small intestine). For others with bowel problems, there are candys with fiber and drinks, all kinds of healthy ways to add fiber to your diet. ... EAT SALADS! stay away from fatty foods and sugar. The doctor is the best way to be healed!!

Read this book:  Specific carbohydrate diet.  See if it's for you.  It does help.  It's difficult to keep to the diet as it does eliminate a lot of normal American foods.  Here is a link to the main website:  http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/

Also, check if you have hypothyroidism.  I have colitis and just assumed it was that that was causing the constant constipation. Well, I was recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism.  Since taking medicine for it, I've been able to go a bit more.
