Suggest Treatment For Intestinal Parasite
possibly an intestinal parasite
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it is an intestinal parasite or worm.
The most common is the tape worm.
These are transmitted by use of contaminated food or drink.
They can vary in length from only a few inches to feet.
One of the medications most commonly used to treat worms is zentel which is the trade name for a medication called albendazole.
It may be possible to obtain without a prescription but you would have to ask your local pharmacist if this is the case or if a prescription from your doctor is needed.
If you wanted to accurately determine if any infection is present, you would need to have a stool test done.
Your doctor would send a sample to the lab.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions

Detailed Answer:
HI
Tapeworms are flat, this was mentioned because it is one of the more common ones seen. Other types of parasites are threadworms and roundworms.
The fact that it was immobile does not rule out infection unfortunately.
It is not definite that you do not have any parasitic infection and the structure may be food used that passed out undigested.
As mentioned if you want to confirm or deny, you can consider stool testing.
The treatment with zentel, if you wish to use it, is only one single dose.
