Hi,

Welcome to HCM

Tapeworm infection can be diagnosed by stool examination for eggs and cysts. Tapeworms are long worms whose segments can also be seen in the stool.
Tapeworm eggs are typical and can be diagnosed easily.
Uneasiness in the throat ca be due to many reasons. I suggest you get your throat examined by an ENT specialist to rule those causes.
Thanks.
