Brief Answer:
This is normal unless he has any other symptoms!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

These results do not post to any specific disease condition. If she has any symptoms, report to me for review and further insights. If there are no symptoms, there is no reason to consider these findings abnormal.

Generally, values greater than 5/HPF would raise concerns but not less than.

I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
