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.
Threadworms, also known as pinworms, are tiny parasitic worms that infect the large intestine of humans. Threadworms are a common type of worm infection in the UK, particularly in children under the age of 10. The worms are white and look like small pieces of thread.You may notice them around your child's bottom or in their poo.hreadworms lay their eggs around an infected person's anus (bottom), usually at night. Along with the eggs, the worm also secretes a mucus that causes itching. If the eggs get stuck on the person's fingertips when they scratch, they can be transferred to their mouth or on to surfaces and clothes.
