Hi welcome to HCM
Blood in stool along with pain occur if you have constipation, and then it is not a big issue.
But in the absence of constipation, other causes are haemorrhoids (piles) and ulcerative colitis.
In haemorroids, you can identify a mass protruding through anus and stool usually doesn't contains mucus.
Blood and mucus are more common in ulcerative colitis
You need further evaluation
consult your doctor
Thank you
