Hello
i appreciate your concern
this can't be worms it could be mucus thread
if you can upload me a photograph or complete medical history that will be a great help to diagnose it
in my opinion you should consult a ENT surgeon for examination and a battery of tests for confirmation of diagnosis
you can do gargles with antiseptic mouth wash before sleep
waiting for your response
best wishes
