Default Confused About Lily - Worms?

Hi All!

This morining when I took Lily out for a walk she did her normal thing poop and pee. When we came back in I noticed her scratching her front leg/chest area and I noticed there was a 2 inch long worm - purpley brownish in color and about the width of spaggeti on her. I immediatly took it off and looked for others (there werent) but now I am worried. Could she have worms? I googled it and cant quite figure it out - it didnt look like a tapeworm or heartworm. She also just went to the vet a week ago and is due for her flea and tick meds this week (gave it to her last month).
Everything else is normal - is it possible I worm just crawled on her on our walk? I live in NYC so she wasnt on grass - just pavement. She is my little baby and I care about her so much so I am not sure if I am over reacting! Any help to what this might be would be great!
