Hello and thanks for writing in at HCM
The problem you are facing are due to the abortion pills you have taken earlier. You have to be very careful and in touch with your doctor while taking these medication because incomplete abortion can create problem.
As you have not told about the present bleeding, in my opinion go for USG abdomen to confirm the abortion or retain part of conception. If USG is normal than this pain will resolve with few medication otherwise consult your Gynecologist for further treatment.

hi,
usually after completing the course of abortion pills the process of abortion will complete in 48 hours,
after that also for few days mild cramping and for around 1 to 2 weeks minimal spotting can be seen, so you don't worry,
but if the bleeding becomes heavy or/and the pain becomes severe that may indicate retained products,
so in that case you better consult gynecologist and undergo ultrasound once.
take care.
