What Can Cause A Worm In Stool And Orange Residue After A Bowel Movement?

So. I saw a worm in my stool. It was relatively small and thin. And for the past two weeks or so when I wipe after a bowel movement the toilet paper has an orangish residue. What is this? I plan to go see the doctor for pin worms but I've been treated for those before

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You may be suffering from pin worm infestation with Irritable bowel problems. Take tablet Albendazole followed by repeated dose after 2 weeks. Keep your bed clean, change bed sheets, avoid smoking.
Wash hands every time before breakfast. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
