Hello dear
Understand your concern
Just wait for 2 days to stop bleeding. If bleeding, pain and sticky discharge continue after 7 days, you should consult the gynecologist.
Following are the causes : retain product of conception, infections.
Diagnosis is made by ultrasound scan and infection by SWab test.
If retain product will detect, should be treated by misoprostol or by surgicl process like Evacuation / D & C.
I think you have infection, and it should treated by:
Antibiotic course: cefuroxime, apply warm pad over pelvic area, maintain pelvic hygiene, analgesic like meftal spas, rest and healthy diet with iron supplements
Hope this may help you
Best regards
