Should I Be Concerned As I Am Having Abdominal Pain?

I went to the bathroom to remove and change my tampon. I had extreme discomfort when trying to remove it (which is uncommon). It took a few tries to fully pull it out and found there were two tampons instead. I'm having a lot of abdominal pain. Should I be worried?

Hi. Is it possible that one of the tampons was lying there for lot of days? If yes this can cause infection spreading to uterus and pelvis. It is unheard of to have a pain in abdomen on removing tampon. There can be other reason too. Better to get the examination done and may be some investigations if the pain does not subside on its own.
