The most common symptom of pinworms is an itchy rectal area. Symptoms are worse at night when the female worms are most active and crawl out of the anus to deposit their eggs.

Although pinworm infections can be annoying, they rarely cause serious health problems and are usually not dangerous. Therapy with routine prescription medications provides an effective cure in almost all cases.

I'm having my natural cleanse so I don't think I have worms now as grown-up. I had only have them squirming when I was young after having those anti-worms tablets I really hate to take.
Here's a site that may give you some information on how to aid worms naturally http://www.biogetica.com/cure-worms.php

More information needed - there are various types of worms that can live in the human body (and in the stomach) - all of which have different treatments. For general information on intestinal parasites, the following website may be useful: http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/intestinal-parasites-000097.htm

If you can be more specific, I would be happy to give you a more detailed and accurate answer. Thanks!
