Brief Answer:
Normal histological findings

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the additional information.
The crypts and lymphoid infiltrate are normally found in the small intestine.

Crypts are mucosal glands of the small intestine and they are rich in lymphocytes and plasma cells.

You are not having any symptoms and the ileo-colonoscopy was normal.

So there is no need to worry as they are normal findings.
