Watery stool with blood mucous.
My mother is having constipation and water instead of stool with some mucous for past week. She has frequent abdominal pain and urges to rush to washroom but nothing comes out since she has difficulty in digesting fiber.
Doctor has given her looz syrup, ciplox tz, cremaffin and entofoam enema. But can't see any changes in her health? Earlier in Jan sigmoidoscopy was done which showed post Radiation stricture.

Inadequate information provided. Why was radiation given? Any surgeries done before? She should undergo a complete colonoscopy.
