Abdominal Pain, Diarrhea, Itchy Vagina, Foul Smelling Discharge. Had A Stuck Tampon Years Ago. Same Problem Again?

I don't know y I didn't thing about this because I had a tampon stuck once before 5 years ago. Few weeks ago I started getting severe abdominal pain in my groin pelvic region sometimes radiating to my back. Watery diarrhea for more than a week. Headaches, hot flashes sweating at night. Hot when I'm usually cold. The pain still hasn't gone away. Itchy vagina, alot of discharge and foul smell. I have checked for a lost tampon but not sure because I can't tell. Also feel alot of pressure and numbness when I tried checking for one. Also I got my period over a week ago so I thought that was y I was feeling that way but the pain has been constant and doesn't go away. Also last few days on and off I had some spotting that starts off as light pink and also brown color. My period already ended. And had low grade fever. Please help, not sure what this is or if a tampon is actually stuck.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having severe infection in your lower genital tract giving rise to this problem.
Stucking of old tampon since 5 years is less likely but infection might be chronic.
Consult Gynaec and get examined.
Vaginal swab and Pap smear examination will help a lot.
After all reports go for specific antibiotic medicine course accordingly.
Keep local hygiene healthy.
Ok and take care.
