In most cases, the symptoms of threadworm infestation include: Intense itching in the anal region at night when the worms lay eggs. Inflammation of the anus as a result of constant scratching. In some cases, mild abdominal pain. Sometimes, tiny, white threadworms can be seen wriggling in the faeces after a bowel movement. In rare cases, infestation causes appendicitis. What might be done? The diagnosis can be confirmed by identification of threadworm eggs in a swab taken from the anal region. Your doctor will probably prescribe an anthelmintic drug to kill the worms effectively and speed recovery. Usually, the entire household is treated.
