It sounds challenging to have ongoing stomach issues with loose stools and mucus daily. This pattern may suggest an underlying condition like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or another gastrointestinal disorder that needs proper evaluation.

🩺 What This Likely Means

Persistent loose stools with mucus can indicate inflammation or irritation in the intestines. Since this has been ongoing since childhood, it’s important to rule out conditions such as IBS, infections, or inflammatory bowel disease.

🩺 Recommended Next Steps

• See a gastroenterologist for a thorough assessment, including history, physical exam, and possibly stool tests or colonoscopy.
• Avoid self-medicating with antispasmodics or other drugs without medical advice, as treatment depends on the exact diagnosis.
• Keep a symptom diary noting stool frequency, consistency, diet, and any triggers to help your doctor.
