I tried to find it, then I was questioning if I used one or not. So now 7 days on I have a dull pain in my pelvis area. Feels almost like a wind trap, but I've had it for 3 days or more.It's Saturday, I'm wondering if it could wait until Monday and make appointment to see the nurse at my local doctors. Or should I go to the hospital before Monday? I'm worried, should I wait or go?

Hi, Just to add my voice to all the others, as a woman, very important to get to the hospital emergency room for an x-ray or whatever they will do to determine, if you do have the tampon inside. As everyone else has said, go now! Take care. Good luck.

If you have a tampon inside,it can cause infection and the sooner it is removed the better. You might also need antibiotics.
Never take chances with your health.
