Paranoid I have worms

Posted , 4 users are following.

This is going to be really TMI so I’m sorry for the grossness but I’m really scared! I’ve noticed in the last couple days I’ve been itchier in the anus area but it hasnt been very bad and I think I may just be paranoid, because I hardly thought anything of it until tonight. Tonight i had a very loose stool and floating at the surface were these small, transparent looking, yellowish white worm things. I didnt get a picture but I got one later I will put a link to at the bottom. Could it be just mucus or undigested food? I’m looking through parasite forums and driving myself crazy scared. i’m afraid to go to bed because im scared there are eggs on my bed or something. please help!

    Your pictures were blocked but if this is your only problem you should go to the doctors it just might be Pin worms. Pin worms usually come out or try to at night mostly. Had it when I was a kid.
