What Does The Pus Cells In The Report Indicate?

Dear Doctor, my 5-1/2 year old daughter complains of abdominal pain every night. We gave her Nizonide-O, O2 & Cyclopam suspension. Her pain subsides for an hr or two but then again starts. We did her USG but nothing came out of it. Also, her stool examination report indicates Pus cells in the range of 12-20/hpf. Pls let me know what that means and what can be the cure of this pain ? Thank you. Ashwin

General Surgeon,  's  Response
HI.
The reports are suggestive of colitis and needs a careful treatment of 1 to 3 weeks duration.
If required you may please consult a Pediatric Surgeon who is a better one that the routine Pediatrician. He can perform colonoscopy if he has pediatric colonoscope which gives a perfect diagnosis.

Please give a full course of treatment as well as treatment of worms , even though it may not be seen ob stool examination( empirical basis).

Stool culture and sensitivity test helps in some cases to have a direction of te proper antibiotics and complete recovery.
