Worms: Has he lost any weight recently? Traveled anywhere out of the ordinary? Regardless, take him to see his doctor & get stool studies (if you can bring in a worm, that would be extremely helpful although i know that sounds disgusting). He should get diagnosed & treated to prevent spread of worms elsewhere in his body. In meantime, good hygiene is a must.
