Something has irritated your colon. Could be a variety of reasons. Mucous is produced naturally in the bowel and will increase if there is some sort of problem. If this has just started and it doesn't improve then it would be wise to see a doctor to rule out the more serious causes.

It is a very common symptom for those with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome).
