What Causes White Pasty Discharge Coming From The Rectum?

I have a white pasty discharge coming from my rectum and it smells horrible. I have Chron's disease and IBS, but never noticed this before. I'm very embarrassed. I've had testing done and still have no answers. I don't know what else to do, I'm very frustrated. Can you please offer any suggestions?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such symptoms could be due to infection ideally the stool needs to be sent for testing but it can be treated on tentative basis with Tab Metronidazole 400 mg twice in day for five days, because it could be protozoa infection, some time diet could be the cause with dyspepsia hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
