Suggest Remedy For Discomfort In Vagina Caused Due To Left Out Tampon
I forgot my tampon. It was in there for approx 2-3 days. My husband and I had sex last night and he noticed something didn t feel right. I didn t think anything of it. I woke up this morning with severe discomfort in my pelvic area. After a self exam I found the tampon and removed it. The majority of pain and discomfort were immediately gone. However, I m still experiencing some slight discomfort especially when I cough, sneeze or laugh. It s this normal? Should I be concerned? Should I see a doctor?

Dear user,
I really understand your concern.
Based on your introduction, there's a risk for pelvic infection disease. I suggest you to see an OBS/GYN specialist for further investigations.
Good luck.
