welcome to Health care magic.

1.Symptoms like this are seen in incomplete abortion.
2.There might be retained products of conception in the uterus.
3.Try some pain killers for a day or two, if resolved well and good, if spotting and pain still persists.
4.You need to see your doctor and get an ultrasound pelvis done for confirmation of the retained products of conception.
5.And needful procedure done (dilatation and curettage is treatment of choice in this case)

Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
