Brief Answer:
Likely to be a fistula.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, I can understand your concern.
Passing brownish solid matter and having flatulence through the urinary meatus,is typical of a fecal fistula.
You must get examined by an Urologist and do the following tests:
1. urine routine and culture.
2. blood routine, RBS, LFT,creatinine, and platelets.
If fecal matter is seen in urine, do these tests also:
3. CT-IVU,followed by a cysto-urethrogram.
4. A cystoscopy will be needed after seeing these reports.
After seeing these reports, an expert opinion can be given, regarding further treatment.
Drink about 10-12 glasses fluids daily.
You should mention, if you're on treatment for any other illness.
You may send the reports here, for an expert opinion.
Wish you well.
Dr. XXXXXXX J. MANGAT.
