Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Normally stools contain 0-5 or more pus cells per HPF.
I the pus cells are more than 10 pus cells per HPF we call it infection.
Otherwise nothing to worry.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
