What is causing my long-term anal pain and mucus discharge without bleeding?
I have been having pain around my anal area (anus) for a long time. The pain comes and goes, and it is usually relieved after passing stool. I also have a white, mucus-like discharge coming from inside the anus almost every day. It looks like thick saliva or mucus. I am sure it is coming from the anus, not from the penis. I do not have abdominal pain or bleeding. The problem has been present for years.The pain is sometimes sharp. It usually occurs while sitting and improves after passing stool. There is no visible swelling or bleeding.
