On Worms, Tape and Why I Can’t Scratch My Itchy Butt
My butt is itchy. It is so so itchy. But I dare not scratch it. Scratching my butt is not in the cards. If I scratch my itchy butt, I’m liable to end up with little worms living inside me. Not that they are not already there. If my butt is itching, they are there. But scratching my butt will just compound the problem.
Or maybe my butt is just itchy because I happened to catch a segment on Oprah about worms and now I am all paranoid about what could be living inside me at the moment.
The deal with the itchy butt is kind of disgusting. There are these tiny worms that can get into your body when you get their eggs on your fingers and then ingest them. They hatch on your colon and live in your body. And then your butt gets itchy.
Why does your butt get itchy? There are worms on it.
Seems the mother worms work their way out of your anus during the night and lay eggs on your butt. And these eggs are itchy. So you scratch your butt. And then you get eggs on your fingers and end up ingesting more worms.
Those little wiggly buggers are sneaky.
I’m pretty sure I don’t have worms. If I did, I’d most likely be able to see them in my poop. But if I want to be sure, I can put a piece of tape of my anus tonight and then see if there are any eggs on it in the morning.
I’m not kidding. I saw this on Oprah, and everything you see on Oprah is real.
So if your butt is itchy in the morning, you might want to find some tape and stop it up the next night. You might have worms. Or you could just have an itchy butt, in which case you should probably take a shower.
But worry not. Worms are common and all you need to do is take a pill and you’ll be all cleaned up. There’s nothing to panic about.
If you want something to panic about, panic about the tiny catfish that is attracted to urine and can wiggle into and live in your naughty bits.
Gross. And the catfish… I don’t know if I can ever go swimming in a lake again.
Oh my now if my butt gets itchy i’ll be all paranoid and shit. I am definitely not swimming in any lakes or non man-made water entities. Ewwww!!!!
Once again, you are always such pleasant reading at lunchtime… ;P
I saw that Oprah episode, too. And those of you worried about the penis fish, don’t, because you get it from swimming in the Amazon. If you try the tape-over-the-hole thing, Dr. Sparky, you should definitely let us know!
DS…leave it to you to post about the very show I saw last night of Oprah’s (TiVO). That show was so disgusting I just had to watch. LOL. That Dr. Oz is s kick in the pants.
Needless to say, I ain’t going swimming in the Amazon River any time soon.
Yet another post that leaves me speechless…
Worms, huh?
And here I thought my itchy butt was because of that special shaving I did for IML…
I caught the tapeworm segment (no pun intended) when they got to the hookworm, I was outta there!
we MUST get you addicted to some other TV shows
endoparasites are nasty; but not as disgusting as ectoparasites.
i have tiny white worms in my butt and i don’t know how to get ride of them

Um People WASH YOUR HANDS after you go to the bathroom with warm water and soap!!! Really we are all adults here dont you already know that??? For the nail biters out there think of this every time you go to put your fingers in your mouth!!!
Just think they may not even be from your anus if you touch something someone else touched after they wiped and didnt wash you get their poop in your mouth!!! NASTY
I have them and I haven’t said antying to anyone about them I want to tell my mom but I don’t know what to say or her reaction!
ya my butt itches
To pashence, Cassidy and “me”,
just go to the doctor already. Worms aren’t necessarily a hygiene thing, and you can’t get rid of them on your own. The only gross thing is you leaving them to multiply in your gut.
My ass is freaking itchy all day and those worms only come out at night? so i don’t really know what to do…. but i’m not sure ether cause i’m a nail biter… i’m going to the doctor…. by the way catfish up my specialty area. never again swimming in a lake or anything.
hey, just wondering if anyone knew how to get rid of them without going to GP? my itch is constant all day and night!!! but i dont want to see the GP because its embarrasing!!! eeeek!! let me know if you have any ideas… thanks stacie x
OMG one morning i woke up and my butt was itching like CRAZY i didn’t want to tell anybody at that time cause i thought it would stop in a few min. but no it went on and on. i thought there was something wrong with me and i had a bad problem that could not be solved thank gosh i found this site im now worm free!
Had itching for 6 months, Had a colonoscopy, was given 3 different medicines,
have seen 3 differnt doctors, was told to take 3 baths a day, was told to eat more fiber, was tested for yeast infection, but this last doctor did a test on the stool sample and said I had a e-coli bacteria infection and has put me on antibiotics and cream and I haven’t itched since I’ve been on these. I hope this is finally over.
im on a long distance trip in a bus and my ass is bloody itchng
i had this when i was the child it was the worst things known to mankind. I wanted to rap my anus off it was horrible. The itching was unexplainable it was not just any itch but one where it would want to make you jump bc you couldnt handle it
ya i know
if it true how can i know what type of worms that i have and what medicine should i use? and how to use it? and how i clean my bed night?
I look forward to here from you as soon as possible
I think you really can help me. I more thank you to you that you pay your time for helping me. see you later. bye (its not my comment. its my suggestion)
I think yeast causes itchy bum too. So if you have a yeast thingy going on, known or unknown, it feeds off sugar big time. So knock off the sweets and try “Candex” instead of pharma yeast meds that are hard on the liver.
The worms grow in your colon and the eggs are layed in your Sphincter If your anus. Also known as the arse hole. To fix the problem of this go to your Pharmacist or Doctor and you will be able to buy pills, Vernox tablets come in 100mg. Packets differ from 4-10 pills. They are quite expensive. But you don’t want worms in our anus. Having to itch all day. Mebendazole is whats in the tablets treats pinworm- threadworm.
Hope this helps

The itch that I have is rare and not all that strong, sometimes it’s just a slight tingle that makes me want to itch.
Can it be said that I don’t have worms?
Just wanting a reply before I check ;D
my daughter is 5yrs old and jus realised she is scracting her anus and vagina jus after she falls off to sleep so checked last nite only to find 3 tiny white worms jus trying to enter her vagina. used a cotton bud to tk it out and applied a dusting powder…what sud i do next pls advise………
i juz found out tht i have this. wat can i do to stop this othr than the medicines? cuz i put tissue in my butthole hoping not for them to go anywher else lik vagina.
If you see the worms on there bums you NEED to get the over the counter pin worm medication ASAP. Tell your daughter to try not to scratch her bum, but if she has to she needs to wash her hands. the females come out at night to lay there eggs around the anus, that is what itches. the medication is taken once and then again in 2 wks to ensure that all the eggs are gone. Wash all bedding and stuffed toys, do a thourough clean of your house and bathrooms after the ENTIRE family has been treated. If one of you has them, chances are all of you have them. Because your daughter is little i would put a pull up on her at night, with some zinc cream (it helps the itching) that way its hard for her to scratch, furthering the problem and it keeps the creapy crawlers off the sheets. I would shower every morning. Dont re wear the same pants, and from now on alwayse wear underwear and pajama bottoms to bed. Its easy to freak out, but dont. pin worms are sooo common, the problem is that nobody talks about it so it spreads! if you have friends and family that you are around alot you should let them know, cause they may have them as well and need to be treated. my nieces got pin worms and i treated myself just incase, and i had them too. they can be a-symptomatic (you wont itch).Remember the medication is over the counter, so those who are too embarassed to go to the doctor just got to the pharmacy. the only thing that kills these guys is the medicine. For females, the worms will sometimes crawl into the vagina, but as far as i know, they cannot survive there. To all of you who are afraid to be treated – dont be, they are sooo common in my city of 1million people that most of the drug stores are sold out at the moment. When we were growing up my mom said that she “de wormed” us every spring and fall, as a precaution.
OK, what else? if you are unsure, you can always go to a walk in clinic and get a test, it is a sticky stick that you place around your anus in the morning, if there are any eggs the lab will confirm it.
good luck
