Blood in stool is something serious. In IBS this is not seen. So you might be having some intestinal pathology which is causing lower backache and blood in the stool.
So consult a gastroenterologist and get done clinical examination, lower GI (gastrointestinal) scopy and CT Abdomen to find out the cause.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
