Hi,
Most common causes is protozoa infection. It often presents with abdominal cramps, frequent stools in small quantities with blood and mucus. Often caused by poorly handled food which promotes food contamination.
I suggest that you take metronidazole 500mg thrice daily for 3days. This will solve the problem. I wish you well.
