For the last 15 days, I have lower stomach pain, frequent mucus coming out (white, yellow, sometimes foamy), bloating, difficulty passing gas, and an uncomfortable feeling in the rectum. Sometimes I’m constipated, sometimes I have yellow diarrhea. What could this be?
The symptoms indicate possible IBS and colon inflammation. This is consistent with IBS-M type. I would suggest you get Fecal Calprotectin test done to assess the severity of the condition first. Till you do that I would recommend following a low FODMAP diet and avoiding gluten and dairy completely. Start with stress relieving activities like yoga and meditation as there is a direct connection of stress and IBS affliction. Please contact us after you get your test results so we can guide you further.
IBS-M — alternating between constipation and diarrhea — is a sign that the gut-brain communication is dysregulated, not just that the bowel is inflamed. Addressing stress alongside diet is what shifts the pattern.
Eating at a restaurant without calculating consequences. Travelling without mapping bathroom locations. Waking up and not thinking about your stomach first. These aren't small things — they're your life. And they're what our patients get back after completing the Thavira protocol. Our AYUSH-certified doctors treat chronic gut conditions using a personalised, sequenced 7-modality protocol — naturopathy, herbology, supplements, yoga, meditation, acupressure, and hydrotherapy — with the goal of permanent healing, not lifelong management.
