Forgotten Tampon Removed, Discharge More Than Usual With Itching. Yeast Infection ?
Hi. i just removed a tampon that apparenlty i forgot i had on. not even sure for how many days i had it on. I noticed i started discharging more than usual yesterday, and today it stared itching a little. also i think i see residue of yeast too, i belive its yeast because i had that infections before. what should i do right now?

Hi,
Forgotten tampoon causes infection which could be bacterial and not only yeast. Hence i request you to see a gynecologist to take a vaginal swab for culture and sensitivity and take antibiotics accordingly.\
Please donot ignore it as it might complicate further.
Regards
