Call your gyn: You should be evaluated right away. If this is a foreign body, you could get infected from it.

Retained Tampon: Generally the most common situation with this story is a forgotten tampon. If there is no retained tampon then you definitely need an exam with the gynecologist.

See your OB/GYN: It could be an infected gland or an abscess of some kind. It needs to be looked at. Make an appointment for an exam with your ob/gyn. It may require drainage or an antibiotic.
