Could Mistakenly Inserting Diclo-Denk 100 Rectal Into My Vagina Instead Of The Prescribed Vaginal Medicine Be Harmful?

Hi. I m 25 and I saw my gynaecologist a month ago and she gave me a medicine to insert to vagina. I also had another medicine at home called Diclo-Denk 100 Rectal that is inserted into anus when you have a fever. These two medicines look very similar and I mistakenly put this Rectal into my vagina. It did hurt a little first, and I am worried now, and tried to contact my gynaecologist but apparently she s gone out of town. Is it harmful? What should I do? Please give me advice rather than go to hospital and see a doctor?
