Hello
Your findings suggests mildly raised RBC count.
It is generally due to benign reasons like dehydration,hypoxia,high altitude,smoking etc.
It generally doesn't require any treatment.
However this condition need clinical correlation.
There shouldn't be problem in visa process due to this finding.
Take Care
