A positive result indicates that your stool sample contained white blood cells, or leukocytes. If the test results for you or your child reveal leukocytes in the stool, the digestive tract is inflamed in some way. The likelihood that you or your child has a bacterial infection increases as the number of leukocytes is found.

<h3>What is diarrhoea ?</h3>

Diarrhoea is a loose, watery, and perhaps more frequent form of constipation. It could coexist with other symptoms like weight loss, nausea, vomiting, or stomach pain or it might be the sole symptom present. Thankfully, diarrhoea rarely lasts more than a few days.

  • The three most frequent causes of acute and chronic diarrhoea are infections, traveler's diarrhoea, and drug interactions.
