Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Your reports suggest that your child was suffering from infective diarrhea and now recovered.
if the pus cells are 10 or more than 10/HPF, then it suggests infection.
Hence as per your report he is cured now.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
