What Causes Stomach Pain With Alternating Diarrhea And Constipation?

A few days ago I suffered from several bouts of diarrhea. I have lower left stomach pain which is made worse and becomes sharp when I push down on the area. My stools are solid now and I am not constipated. The past two days I frequently have the urge to defecate; however, when I try to use the restroom, it s just gas followed by a clear/yellow mucous discharge. The only thing different that I remember happening a few days ago, was a physical blow to my stomach, and also the possibility of eating some bad food (some beef and pork I ate may have been undercooked). Please help. Thank you.
