In young girls, inflammation can occur around the vagina. Threadworm can be diagnosed in children using the sticky tape test using a kit from your general practitioner.
This test is best done in the morning prior to a bath, as worms can migrate during resting periods. The test involves separating the buttocks and applying a piece of sticky transparent tape to the area just outside of the anus and between the buttocks. The tape is stuck on the skin, then removed and placed onto a glass slide provided in the kit.
The doctor will then examine the slide for worms or worm eggs. Threadworm infection usually occurs by ingesting infectious eggs. Threadworms rely on the itchiness in the anal skin region to transmit their eggs: children tend to scratch their bottom at night and catch the eggs under their fingernails, which they then put in their mouth. So nail biting, poor hygiene or inadequate hand washing contributes to the spread of threadworm.
Children can easily spread the infection to other family members by transferring eggs to bed linen and bathroom fixtures. In the right conditions, eggs can survive for several days. Humans cannot contract threadworm from animals.
