Only bright red blood found. Culture stool test was normal and in blood test eosinophil count was increases. How to be certain that it is hemorrhoids only?

General surgeon can do proctoscopy to find out internal hemorrhoids. .....if they are not you need to undergo colonoscopy to rule out inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)....as you said you have been adequately treated for infections
