I'm feeling this strange cold and minty sensation in my throat, and it's been going on for almost a week now. I stopped smoking because I thought that might be causing it, but it's still there. I read somewhere that it might be acid reflux, but I'm not really sure how that would happen. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm a 40-year-old male and for the past week, I've been noticing mucus discharge from my anus without any stool, just liquid mucus. I do have some gastric and digestion issues but no other problems like fever, BP, diabetes, injuries, or surgeries. What could be causing this and what treatment would you suggest?
Rectal mucus discharge without stool, along with existing gastrointestinal issues, could be related to conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), hemorrhoids, or even certain infections. It's crucial to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment, as the underlying cause needs to be determined
