What Causes White Worms In Stool?

I feel movement in my stomach and abdomen area.. im sure i have woems oe a parasite. But a batool test was taken ans they could find anything. I then found small white worms in my stool. Yet i feel there is something bigger. I can feel its movement and here it as well. Very worried. Is there a way to check if I have intestinal worms or parasites visually.
