Should I Be Worried About The WBC Count In My Stools?
I have diaherria and did a stool test. My result came as rbc 1-2 hpf and wbc as 15-16 hpf.
I have internal hemaroids that do not bother me, but with my frequent visits to the restroom, I think I might have some irritation. Should I be worried about the wbc count? I feel fine and energetic
