Threadworms are any long slender roundworms, commonly found in preschool and school aged children. They often occur in more than one family member.
Threadworms look like white threads, about 8mm long. They live in the lower intestine, but come out of the bottom at night or in the early morning hours to lay their eggs in the area between the buttocks. This causes very annoying itching in the area especially at night.
Threadworms are spread by children scratching their bottom and carrying the worm eggs back to their mouth with their hands. They can also be spread indirectly, in food, dust, or other articles. The eggs can survive up to two weeks outside the body. Once these eggs are swallowed, they hatch in the small intestine and travel down.
Threadworm infection is not usually serious and easily cured with medication. Repeat infections are very common and there are precautions you need to take to help prevent this and the spread of threadworms to others.
