Question

Asked for Male, 25 Years

Hi everyone, I had diarrhea which lasted for 4 days. 5 times on day 1, 2 times on day 2, 4 times on day 3 and 1 time on day 4. I took one loperimide on day 4 and my diarrhea stopped.. My doctor did a stool wbc test after 3-4 days and e coli, shigella test. Everything was negative except stool wbc test showed 2+ neutrophils. What could this mean and is it due to some other condition?
