hello,
as there is frank blood, rbc & pus cells in stool sample it is if inflammatory diarrhea, Laboratory testing should include a complete blood count, fecal leukocyte level, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and fecal calprotectin level to confirm inflammatory bowel disease by colonoscopy & biopsy
Hope it helps, Take care & plz do keep me posted on how you doing or if you have any additional doubts
Kind regards
