I'm experiencing a clear, sticky discharge from my anus, and it's got a pretty bad smell. I've also had loose stools for months. What could be causing this?

the transparent, sticky, and foul-smelling anal discharge, accompanied by loose stools for several months, could be caused by gastrointestinal infection, anal fistula or abscess, hemorrhoids, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), malabsorption, or dietary factors, and it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist or proctologist for a thorough examination and diagnosis.

I'm really worried about my dad, he's 54 and has been dealing with a fatty liver and jaundice for about a month now. I noticed that his SGOT level is 65. Do you think he can safely take Ecosprin tablets with these conditions? I'm just trying to figure out what's best for him.

Your father should not take Ecosprin tablet as it can worsen his liver condition.
