What Is The Treatment For Yellowish Vaginal Discharge And Fever?
I think I may have forgotten about a tampon inside of me. it s been about a week, I noticed the smell a few days ago, also had yellow discharging and left side pains in my abdomen. today I have been getting lower back pains and my stool had white fluffy stuff on it. I have yet to have a fever though. should I be worried? I have not gotten the tampon out, and also cannot find it.

Hi, thanks for writing..
Consult your doctor at the earliest to check for the retained tampoon. Get it removed and get a vaginal swab for culture. Antibiotics need to be started. If you have the habit of forgetting tampoons , its better to use pad instead. hope I have answered your query. Good day
