Those are symptoms of an inflammation bowel disease which could be infectious or new onset inflammatory bowel disease. Colon cancer does not manifest that way and you are too young for this malignancy unless you have family history of intestinal polyposis. For the current condition, you should be evaluated by a doctor, blood and stool tests should be done.
