Still too little information.
What size are the "worms" (as near as you can tell)? When and how do you
observe them - do they only appear in faeces or do they appear at the anus?
Are they motile (moving) when observed? Is there any pruritus (itching)
around the anus, particularly at night? How frequently do you observe them
and in what numbers?
Where do you live? Have you travelled abroad? Are there children in
your household? Do you keep pets or live in close proximity to other animals?
If they are worms at all, they are quite likely to be threadworms, which are
easily eradicated, but you have given too little information to tell.
If you really prefer to be colonised by parasites longer than necessary, to
transmit them to those around you, to risk serious illness and to follow advice
from people whose qualifications experience and motives you can only guess at,
rather than consult a doctor who will have seen it all a hundred times before,
then please post more information and we will contribute what assistance we can.
