What Causes Constipation Along With Drainage Of Mucus Blood From Rectum?

I just had a bowel movement today - no pain, no cramping ,but when I wiped I noticed quite a bit of blood (mucusy clump similar to what I get at times during menstuation). I did a double take because it took me by surprise. When I looked in the toliet bowl, I couldn t see the stood as there was blood floating everywhere. When I wiped again, there was no blood. I ve urinated since then with no trace of blood. My feet have been bloated for a few days now and I tood diurex (for the first time) this weekend to see if that would help. I didn t take more than the recommended 8 per 24 hours, but I also took some ibuprofen a few times as I had headaches. This is the first time this has happened. I m 30/f. Any ideas?
