What Causes Blood In Stool?

Hello, I have had blood in my stool recently. Last time today (more bright in color and maybe a spoonful of amount). Yesterday it was dark red and mixed with some bowel ooze and there was not as much. Before that, it was a week ago, when the same amount and color as yesterday occured. I have had pain in my back at awakening in the morning for about 3 weeks, which I took care with taking 200mg Ibuprofen (not every day). I took Ibufrofen last time yesterday morning and today I took paracetamol to avoid further damage to bowels. What could this mean?
