ibs doesnt produce mucus, but IBD like chron and uc do though.

UC = ulcerative colitis and Crohn's = Chron's disease, both of them are inflammatory bowel diseases.

"IBS" = irritable bowel syndrome. If you are diagnosed with IBS is means your DR does not think that there is any disease process in your gut. However, people with UC or Crohn's often also have IBS, so when you see changes like blood or more mucous it is time to go back to the GI.

Google ibs mucus. .. you'll see mucus is common with IBS.
