Hello No, It's not common, Pink foul smelling discharge might be suggestive of Infection or inflammation, trauma of the genitourinary tract most commonly Vagina.
I see patients with similar complaints in my clinic and I would advise them for clinical examination and a battery of tests like blood for hemoglobin, CBC, Liver and kidney function test, urine culture and a vaginal swab for culture or an ultrasound to establish a diagnosis.
You may require a course of antibiotics either tablets or vaginal pessaries under supervision of your doctor.
Maintain good hygiene Avoid sex or use condom until it heals completely
Thanks for your question best wishes
