Hi, yhanks for writing..
Stop using tampoons. It sounds like you have a vaginal infection. Consult a doctor and get a vaginal swab done for culture and sensitivity. The infection need to be treated. Also treat the sexual partner. Use condom during intercourse till infection heals completely. Hope I have answered your query. Good day.
