Help needed - identify Parasite

[Tractor Fan]

Hi all, does anyone recognise this 25mm long parasite?
Any light on this would be greatly appreciated.

Where did you find it for a start. Plant animal ?

 

[Tractor Fan]

It's in me. Possibly from a wild camping trip to Scotland in 2020.

Have you seen Alien?

Where was it found? Blood? Stomach?

 

[Tractor Fan]

Found in stool

 

[britt]

Why were you looking ?

 

[milkloss]

Don’t pick your nose and eat it

You need to consult a doctor, not a load of farmers on TFF who, to say the least, can be rather 'cavalier' at times with their use of anthelmintics and associated veterinary drugs

......oh, there's always our resident medic @deleted user 837354

big bundle of threadworms?
Get thee to Boots.

Better have a bath in the dipper for good measure,
Jockland's never been the same since those pesky Greens got a foothold

If that is the case, leave them for as long as possible. Every child should have them with delayed action to treat them - they help build a strong immune system.

My 8yo daughter was complaining of a sore tummy daily and generally a bit down but otherwise quite healthy. Thought she might have been suffering an intolerance as she seemed to moan less when avoiding bread, cake, biscuits etc so maybe a gluten intolerance. Decided to check her poo one night out of curiosity and saw thread worm like stringy bits, so a dose of wormer from the chemists and she’s been right as rain since. Who knows how long she’d had them, there had been talk of it about a good while earlier in the school, apparently it’s way more common than you think, and often unnoticed due to a lack of obvious symptoms.

I worm myself once a year since I keep livestock - and no, I don't use the hook doser, I go downthe chemist and get some human worming pills.

Fancy.

Get it put into a sample bottle and take it to the quacks. Was it moving around after it came out or was this thing dead? The lab will be able to tell what it is. Almost looks like a bit of plastic to me though?

No need for fancy wormers from a chemist. Get a mars bar and sit down with it between your legs, then wait patiently with a brick in your hand until they pop out for a snack. When they do, clap 'em on the head with the brick before they can jump back in.

The amount if pour on my hands have absorbed I can’t be wormy

Brilliant idea. Will save paying for a vasectomy too.

Don’t think I will ever have worms or maggots….
