What Could Lead To Sharp Rib Pain, Irritating Cough And Blood Strings In Mucus With Abdominal Pain?

Hi, I ve had an upset stomach since 2pm today and have been to the toilet five times. I noticed that the last time there was quite a bit of red blood in the bowl and a thick string-like mucus, also containing lots of blood. I have also experienced a sharp pain under my right ribs when inhaling for the last few weeks, it s often at its worst when lying down in bed. In addition to this, I ve had an irritating cough for a month now. Is any of this related? What might this be? Many thanks.
