What to do if there are worms in my puppy’s poop? As I suspected it’s a roundworm. Is there any treatment for my puppy? How long does it take to get rid of worms in my puppy? Please advise. Thank you

This is a roundworm indeed, you need to go to the pet shop, you should be able to find a puppy dewormer there, it should only take a few days until your puppy is worm free after the treatment is given.

Those appear to be roundworms. They are an intestinal worm that can be common in puppies. She will need a deworming treatment. I'd get Panacur from your local pet store or vet's office. It's a three day course of treatment, and she will need another course of treatment two weeks after the first finishes to kill all the worms. Best of luck.

The hard things are something that she ate - possibly rocks or gravel? Worms that look like spaghetti are likely roundworms or hookworms. Flat worms or rice-like granules are tapeworms. All of these worms can be treated with an OTC dewormer sold at the pet store. You may also want to have Macy checked out by a vet for other possible intestinal parasites.
