Just wanting to get some information on worms....how do dogs get worms?? what are the symptoms?? how are they treated?? what causes them??

I am just asking cause Thai still has diahrea. And I check his stools samples, I dont see anything there. But they are going to test his stool sample and see if thats the cause??

I am just curious, what the remedy for worms is?? And is there anything I can do at home to help him in the meantime/??

He is active, eating, drinking, and being his normal self, but has diahrea and has had it for 2 days now. I am worried.
