Mucus in Stool from last 2-3 weeks (2-3 times in a week), Formation of too much Gas in stomach and Acidity and from last 3-4 days having nausea - #26739
Hello Doctor, From last 2 years I'm on Blood Pressure medicine (Telmisartan 40, Clinidipine 10, Concor 5). I will give little background related to my health issues. It started with last Jun i.e. June 2024 I ate outside food and I had loose motions of 7-8 episodes in a day and then I had to take monocef 1mg injection 2 injections to stabilize it. In July 2024 I ate Paneer and then again I had loose motions. I had to take Rifagut 400 mg and then it was fine. In August 2024, I had a cough problem and then doctor prescribed one antibiotic if I remember it correctly it was Linid 600. I consulted a GI doctor in Mumbai and then he said it is infection + IBS. He prescribed Yakult probiotic twice a day and then few medicines like prepro capsule, tab nizonide 500, tab colospa, Cap VSL3, Tab Bandy plus. After this medicine and continuing Yakult probiotic I was completely fine for 6 months. In October doctor asked me to on liquid or Khichdi diet for 1 week and then my weight got down from 87 to 80 Kg. After this gradually it increased to 84.2 kg. Here back to back I did stool test twice and full body blood test like CBC, LFT, KFT, Vitamin D, B12 and everything was normal. I stopped probiotic in March 2025. In April 2025 I ate Jackfruit vegetable (Kathal ki sabji) and I had loose motions. After two weeks again I ate Jackfruit vegetable and then again I had loose motion issue. These two times it was also fine with couple of Tab Rifagut 400. I travelled to Dubai May 2025. In June 2025 I ate Pasta and Brinjal vegetable then I had two times loose motion. One Homeopathy medince Aloe 200 3 pill I took and it was ok with that. At this time my weight was 84.2Kg. Since then my stomach is not hundred percent fine. Sometimes in the upper abdomen it pains. And while sleeping in the night I get gurgling sound from the stomach. From last 3 weeks white color mucus is seen in the stool. I can see it 2-3 times in a week. I have observed when I pass only gas while passing the motion then mucus comes out. At present my weight is 81.5 Kg. In June 2025 I did stool test and it was normal. CBC test was also normal. Can you please advice me which medicine I should take to avoid mucsus in the stool, gastric problem in the stomach and sometimes I get anxiety attack (goosebumps comes)?

HELLO SUJEET,
Your gut has been through repeated infections (food poisoning, bacterial overgrowth ) and heavy antibiotic treatments . Antibiotics kill harmful bacteria but also wipe out the good bacteria that protect your gut lining and help digestion. This left your intestines more sensitive , weak, and prone to overreacting to certain foods.
Over time, your digestion (Agni in Ayurveda) became irregular- sometimes strong, sometimes weak- which leads to -Incomplete digestion-> undigested food particles (ama) irritate the intestines -Overproduction of mucus as your intestine tries to protect itself -Gas, bloating, gurgling due to excess fermentation by unbalanced gut microbes -Sensitivity to certain foods (jackfruit, brinjal, pasta, panner) because your gut lining is still healing,
In Ayurveda, this condition matches Grahani roga -weak digestive fire (mandagni) -aggravated vata and kapha -accumulation of ama (toxic undigested material) -loss of normal intestinal tone-> loose motions, mucus, abdominal discomfort.
TREATMENT GOALS This aim is not only to stop mucus but to rebuild your gut health long-term -Strengthen digestion (deepana and pachana) so food gets completely digested -remove ama (toxins) from the intestines -stop excess mucus (kapha shaman) and heal the intestinal lining -rebalance gut microbes naturally -reduce hypersensitivity to foods -calm gut-brain connection to control anxiety and digestive flare ups -prevent relapse during travel or after certain foods
INTERNAL MEDICATIONS
1) KUTAJGHAN VATI= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months =stops mucus and diarrhea, reduces intestinal inflammation
2) AGNITUNDI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 1 month =improves appetite, and strengthen digestion
3) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water before meals for 3 months =reduces gas, bloating, supports smooth digestion
4) BILVADI CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water after meals for 1 month =controls mucus, binds stools
5) PIPPALYASAVA= 15 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner for 2 months =enhances nutrient absorption, improves metabolism
6) BRAHMI VATI= 1 tab at bedtime with warm water for 2 months =calms anxiety, strengthens mind-gut link
7) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 3 gm with warm milk at night for 2 months =reduces stress, supports immunity
LIFESTYLE CHANGES -meal routine= eat at the same time daily -Chew food thoroughly- half the digestion happens in the mouth -avoid cold water and iced drinks (weakens digestive fire) -don’t skip breakfast - skipping aggravates vata and acidity -No lying down immediately after eating- wait 2 hours -travel tip= carry roasted fennel + ajwian mix; chew after meals
YOGA AND PRANAYAM -Pawanmuktasana= daily, improves gas movement -vajrasana= 5 min after meals, aids digestion -bhujangasana= strengthens abdominal muscles -Anulom vilom= 10 min daily -Bhramari= 5 min daily for anxiety -Sheetali= if acidity is high
DIET -soft moong dal khichdi with ghee -lauki, tinda , ridge gourd, pumpkin -steamed carrots, spinach- well cooked -rice, millet light varieties like barnyard or kodo millet -pomegranate, banana ripe In moderation, apple steamed -buttermilk with roasted cumin and rock. salt= best in IBS
FOODS TO AVOID -jackfruit, brinjal, cabbage, cauliflower, capsicum -cold milk, panner, cheese, heavy dairy -maida products -pasta, white bread, bakery -fried and oily food -leftover / reheated food -carbonated drinks
HOME REMEDIES
1) Cumin-fennel-ajwain tea= 1/2 tsp each, boil in 2 cups water, reduce to 1 cup sip warm after heavy meals
2) POMEGRANATE PEEL POWDER= 1/2 tsp with warm water twice daily for 5 days during mucus flare up
3) DRY GINGER POWDER- pinch with honey after meals to reduce bloating
This is not just about stopping mucus- it’s about resetting your digestion so you can eat normally again without fear. Ayurveda works on the root cause- weak digestion and imbalance of vata and kapha- and helps rebuild gut strength slowly but steadily. You’ll likely see symptom relief in 2-3 weeks but complete gut healing can take 3-6 month. Consistency with diet and lifestyle will prevent relapse

Your symptoms seem to reflect an ongoing digestive imbalance, potentially related to Vata and Pitta dosha disturbances, which is evidenced by the gas, mucus in stool, and occasional anxiety. To address these issues comprehensively, it’s important to consider dietary, lifestyle, and medicinal interventions within the realm of Ayurveda.
Dietary Suggestions:
1. Reduce or avoid foods known to aggravate your condition, such as heavy, greasy, or very spicy foods. Additionally, limit intake of foods that are hard to digest like brinjal, jackfruit, and pasta. 2. Integrate more fiber-rich foods like cooked vegetables (like squash and carrots), whole grains like brown rice and oats, and include a variety of legumes in moderation. 3. Eat smaller, more frequent meals to support digestive fire (Agni), and opt for warm, home-cooked meals whenever possible.
Lifestyle Approaches:
1. Establish a daily routine, including regular meal times and proper sleep patterns. 2. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as yoga and meditation regularly. These can help balance Vata and decrease anxiety and related symptoms. 3. Gentle exercises like walking or stretching in the morning help in the proper functioning of the digestive system.
Ayurvedic Treatments:
1. Amla (Indian Gooseberry): This can help balance both Vata and Pitta doshas. You can consume it in the form of powder or juice, preferably in the morning. 2. Triphala: An Ayurvedic herbal formula that aids digestion and supports regular bowel movements. Take 1 teaspoon with lukewarm water before bed. 3. Asafoetida (Hing): Known for its digestive properties, it can be added in small amounts to your meals to reduce gas formation.
Keep observing your body’s reactions, and consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner if symptoms persist. They may recommend tailored herbal formulations based on a thorough assessment of your dosha balance and current condition. Remember to keep your healthcare provider informed about any changes or new treatments you initiate, especially considering your ongoing blood pressure medication.
Observing mucus in the stool over recent weeks, along with excessive gas, acidity, and nausea, often points towards an imbalance primarily in the Vata and Pitta doshas. This can cause digestive disturbances like the ones you’re experiencing. Let’s delve into a blend of traditional Siddha-Ayurvedic remedies that might help you regain balance.
First, consider incorporating Trikatu (a combination of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger) to kindle digestive fire (agni) and enhance digestion. Take about a quarter teaspoon with a warm glass of water before meals. It helps in reducing gas and promoting regular bowel movements by stimulating digestion without irritating the gut lining.
To soothe and cleanse the intestines, you might include a decoction of Bael fruit (Aegle marmelos). Prepare by soaking 5-10 grams of bael pulp in warm water, letting it sit and drinking it strained once daily. It’s effective in reducing the secretion of mucus and supports intestinal health.
For the anxiety aspect and to pacify Vata, practicing grounding yoga poses and pranayama such as Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) can be remarkably beneficial. Aim for at least 15 minutes daily, preferably in the morning to set a calm tone for the day.
Dietary adjustments play a pivotal role. Stick to easily digestible foods like moong dal khichdi, and avoid heavy, greasy, or overly spicy foods as much as possible. Jackfruit and brinjal might also need to be minimized given past reactions. Hydrate with warm herbal teas such as peppermint or cumin-coriander-fennel tea, which alleviate bloating and acidity.
Limit your exposure to stressors where possible and ensure adequate rest, as poor digestion and anxiety can exacerbate each other. If symptoms persist or worsen, consulting a healthcare professional is essential, especially if you notice any new symptoms or changes in your health.
