Hi,
Thank you for posting your question here, I will try to answer it to the best of my abilities.

Brown discharge on its own without any symptoms of pain or itching is not something to worry about it, it means that some blood from your last cycle didnt flow out and has only flown out in this cycle. It is because of this that the blood is brown and not bright red.
So dont worry the tampons arent causing you any problem and you arent pregnant.

I hope this answered your question.
