Noticed A Long String Come Out In Stools. Could This A Parasite?
Today I had a BM and felt something that felt like a cord come out of me. I looked in the toliet only to notice a long string going though and out of the poop. I am in fear that I have a parasite. Since last Sept I have been having severe headaches and wondering could these be related. Thanks
This could be a small intestinal roundworm. This condition is called Ascariasis. Do motion ova and cyst study. This could not be related to the headache. Consult your doctor and treat accordingly.
Wish you speedy recovery
Thanks
