There may be other issues like diverticulitis or Clostridium difficile overgrowth, anyway, stool test is the first what has to be done.

The first thought is colonic inflammation.

The first investigation is stool test for blood, and antibodies, specific for Crohn's disease. Get an appointment with a gastroenterologist soon.
