Blood in the stool with difficulty in defecation is hemorrhoids?

Ask
Hello doctor,
I am 15 years old this year. I find it difficult to defecate and often have blood in the stool, bright red drips. In my family, my grandfather and father both had hemorrhoids and colon polyps. In addition, my diet is not very scientific, I eat little, often skip breakfast, do not eat a lot of vegetables and fruits. So the doctor asked me to ask if blood in the stool with difficulty in defecation is hemorrhoids? How should I treat? I thank you.
