General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
The stool analysis report of your baby states the following:
1. Colour - yellowish green seems to be normal.
2. Consistency - soft is also fine.
3. There is no presence of ova or parasite, which indicates that there is no worm infestation.
4. Microscopy showing pus cells and RBCs are normal. But since there is plenty of bacteria, it indicates that the baby might be having bacterial infection of gastrointestinal tract.
This condition can be cured by medication. Kindly consult Paediatrician with the report for appropriate management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
