What Causes Yellow Mucus Discharge From Anus After Having Milk Of Magnesia?

I am often constipated and I take milk of magnesia every other night. I have forceful gas often. I had a BM a few mins ago and it was several small balls with white/yellow mucus looking strings attached and some unattached. This is the first time I have ever noticed this happening. I m worried about some type of parasite. I had a gastric bypass 23 yrs ago. Could it be blockage from scar tissue?
