Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

Your son is suffering from colitis (intestine infection) due to protozoa (entamoeba histolytica) and bacteria.
This is indicated by presence of cysts of entamoeba histolytica,WBC,RBC ,bacteria etc in stool.
Culture of stool should also be done.
Your son need medicines like metronidazole.
He should be given adequate fluids.
Hope I have answered your question.

Take Care
