I kept my pad liner in for too long to the point where the inside of the pad began to shred. i found granules of a gel like substance around my labia and i am worried it went into my vagina. what should i do? can this cause an infection?

Filler material is an inert plastic polymer. In other words, it is fundamentally harmless. Just dispose of liner, wash off residual material (with soap and water) so it doesn’t cause local irritation and don’t be concerned.
