Health Conditions that Cause Mucus in Stool. A sudden onset of mucus in the stool, accompanied by urgent diarrhea, cramping, fever, and blood in the stool may be indicative of a bacterial infection. If you are having any of these symptoms, contact your physician immediately.
If you notice an increase in stool mucus that occurs regularly, or is accompanied by bleeding or a change in bowel habits, contact your doctor, the Mayo Clinic advises. That's because larger amounts of mucus associated with diarrhea may be caused by intestinal infections that require medical attention. Also seek medical attention for bloody mucus in your stool, or mucus accompanied by abdominal pain.
