Is it possible to have worms come out alive in stool.my neighbor spotted a black worm after her daughter did bowel.confused if it was there or she has?

It happens: A round worm called ascaris can be found in the stool of those infected by the parasite. It is not common but is found in some kids with inconsistent hand washing and exposure to infested areas.
