The stool report do not suggest dysentery or invasive intestinal infection.but mucus and dark coloured stools could be attributed to any recent viral illness, dietary changes or transient intestinal irritation but pointers in history are more important to diagnose if brown stools with mucus is persistent. Share your concerns with your paediatrician and direct consultation would be beneficial.
