But you should talk to your doctor if you notice an increased amount of mucus in stool â particularly if it begins happening regularly or if it's accompanied by bleeding or a change in bowel habits. Larger amounts of mucus in stool, associated with diarrhea, may be caused by certain intestinal infections. Bloody mucus in stool, or mucus accompanied by abdominal pain, can represent more serious conditions â Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and even cancer. With. John M. Wilkinson, M.D.
Some amount of mucus in the stool is normal; however, significant amounts of mucus and mucus accompanied by diarrhea, pain or blood may signify an intestinal condition such as infection or inflammation. Increased amounts of mucus in the stool can also occur with cancers of the colon or rectum or with bowel obstruction.Inflammatory conditions of the bowel, such as ulcerative colitis and Crohnâs disease, can cause abdominal cramping and bloating.Diarrhea is common with these conditions, although constipation can also occur. In addition, blood may be present in the stool as a result of ongoing damage to the intestinal lining.ou may also have blood in the stool and a fever. Conditions of the anus and rectum such as anal fissures (tears or cracks), anal fistulas (abnormal holes or tubes between organs or tissues), and rectal ulcers can also cause mucus in the stool. In such cases, the stool may appear normal or may be bloody.
