Hello and welcome to HCM,
The interpretation of the stool analysis report is as follows:
The physical attributes- color, consistency, specific gravity, pH reaction are within normal limits.
The absence of sugar and trace amounts of albumin are also within range
Presence of pus cells/ white blood cells: 6-10/ hpf suggest presence of infection.
Presence of bacteria further confirms the presence of infection (bacterial).

Thus, this report suggests presence of infection.
Consult your doctor with reports for prescription of antibiotic.

Thanks and take care
