Don’t know what’s going on (Colon or Stomach cancer?)

For the past month I have been having really bad stomach pains and cramps accompanied with Diarrhea (Frequent about 4 or more times a day). I haven't had a normal stool in about a month. Also noticing a yellowish liquid with mucus as well when having my bowels. I have had a colonoscopy done about 2 years ago for some stomach pains I was having , everything turned out clear. Not even a polyp. I have no clue what can be causing this, do I inquire about another colonoscopy? Or is that not necessary for the fact that I had one not to long ago. I tend to think the worst and my biggest fear is cancer 😕 I am a 23 year old male. Otherwise known as pretty healthy never had anything hugely wrong with my health. But I definitely feel like somethings up and I hate that I don't know whats causing this. Any advice or similar experience for recommendations would be a great help. Thank You!

    colon /bowel cancer is rare in young people..sounds like IBS and your own stress could be a contributing factor good luck I'm sure you won't need it.
