How To Tell If Tampon Still In Vagina?

Hi, about 5 days ago I was on my period. My flow was very heavy, so when I went to change my tampon I was going to put on a pad also. But I got distracted and just put on the pad. I do not remember if I changed my tampon or not at all. But when I went to go change my tampon again, the string was not there. And I was worried. Now that I am off my period, I still have cramps. So I went searching in my vagina for that unknown tampon. After finding nothing, I noticed the discharge looked white, and thick, almost like wet tissue paper. Would that be parts of the tampon? I am unsure if I have one in and cannot afford to go to the doctors. Can you give me some insight?
