HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the stool test result is normal one and even the passing of stool three to four time or five time in day is also normal one, but it can be taken into control and for that diet needs to be changed, avoid fat containing food, greasy food, oily food, have fresh fruits, green leafy vegetables, be patience it will be fine soon, if not then stool need to be sent for culture sensitivity just to rule out the infection hope this information helps.
