Tiny White Things During Bowel Movement. Going For Colonoscopy. What Are These?

I'm 39 and am going in for a colonoscopy in the morning. I am going to bring up to the dr about little tiny white things on the toilet paper after I wipe . I think I'm making myself more worried about it as I research a bunch of things . I'm hoping there not parasites . If they where would they be that tiny and not move ?

Greetings of the day
Pin worm can be tiny and not move. Or they could be just mucous, don't be worried as long as you are symptom free. See you doctor who will examine and lay all your anxiety to rest.
All the best for the procedure.
Take care
