Colonic inflammation is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that mainly affects the lining and mucosa of the colon. Inflammation can lead to the destruction of the colon mucosa and the formation of ulcers. When mucous membranes are damaged, large amounts of mucus are released and may be accompanied by traces of blood. Therefore, patients with ulcerative colitis may observe egg-white mucus and blood during defecation.

Bacillary dysentery is inflammation of the colon caused by bacterial infection. Bacillary dysentery, usually caused by Shigella bacteria, causes damage to the colon mucosa and bleeding, while stimulating the intestinal wall to secrete excessive mucus, resulting in the above symptoms.
3. colon cancer
colon cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the colon. Cancer growth can lead to destruction and erosion of the colon mucosa and may cause ulceration. It can also lead to vascular damage and bleeding, and the presence of bloodshot clear mucus after defecation.
