Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
the report suggests that she is having microcytic anemia.
Usually it is due to iron deficiency at this age.
Some more investigations are needed to confirm.
Better consult pediatrician.
It is not life threatening.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
