HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, what the report of stool examination is given here it may not be indicative of blood in stool but it is the normal range of RBC in stool, you have not mentioned the clinical symptoms if child is ever have, if no symptoms is there then it is nothing to worry, it is not the blood stained stool hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
