This topic is about experiencing certain sensations and discharges after having your colon removed. It can be a bit concerning, but here are some helpful insights and advice to ease your mind:

1. It's quite common to feel movement, pressure, or a "tickling" sensation in your stoma when output is passing through. This is usually harmless.

2. If you notice a brown or tan discharge from the anus, it's typically just lubricating mucus. Even after the colon is removed, the remaining rectal tissue can still produce this mucus.

3. During the early stages of recovery, this mucus might have a bit of old blood mixed in due to surgical healing. Over time, both the color and odor should lessen.

4. Some people find that they produce very little mucus eventually, while others might continue to have some discharge. In such cases, using incontinence pads can help manage it.

5. If you still have a rectal stump, sitting on the toilet daily and gently bearing down, as if you're having a bowel movement, can help clear out any accumulated mucus.

6. It's important to seek medical advice if the discharge becomes noticeably bloody or increases significantly. Persistent rectal bleeding might need further investigation and, in rare cases, could require surgical intervention or reversal.
