tampon 3 days!!!! question!!

saturday night  (today is tuesday) i had a tampon in and got really intoxicated and engaged in intercourse. i thought i left it in and couldnt find it but i found it today and took it out. there is a bad odor, slight stomach pain last night but nothing else. has this happened to anyone? most of the blogs ive been reading said toxic shock syndrome would come with fever vomiting and diarreah... i have none of these symptoms. any suggestions for the smell? douche??

please no preaching on my stupidity , im already embarrassed i let this happen  : /

I have left a tampon in on mistake, while wearing another one.  I suggest you not to douche, for it is not good.  If you have no aches or pains, don't worry about it.  Just try to be careful next time.  Oh the smell could just be blocked up blood.  The vaginal will cleanse itself.
