Hi @runda, can you tell me a bit more? You have an ostomy and have recently had a colonscopy. Following the colonoscopy you have mucus that you are unable to pass. Do I have that correct?
To address mucus passage after an ostomy with an intact rectum, consider staying hydrated, discussing diet adjustments, emptying your pouch regularly, trying different positions, gentle abdominal massage, reviewing medications, and consulting your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.
