How To Treat Diarrhea?

I haven't had a bowel movement in maybe a week or so, every since I eat at Captain D's. Maybe a day or so I had the worst diarrhea ever. Today I had a bowel movement for the first time since then and now and when I look at it, it looks like a thick white substance around it. When I researched this it said that it was a worm, but I want to know for sure it really is or not. So please help me! :(
