My son is loosing mucus from his bum following bowel cancer operation he has a stoma. His bum is really sore anyone else had this and if so what can he use to ease the soreness.
Hi sorry to hear of your sons problem please inform his docter if it is causing a problem as they will have medication to help. I have just had a bowel resection and have a stoma but the nurses do ask me everytime is there any mucus or pain at back passage I am just 2 weeks post op.
