Unlikely: The strings need to "wrap wround" the cervix to avoid your feeling them. If they are too long or too short, you may be able to feel them, but it is doubtful they would cause you pain. Have your partner see her gynecologist to check the strings and make sure the iud itself is where it should be. A simple ultrasound can determine proper placement.
