See your GYN: First of all, I am very sorry that that you were raped and hope you reported it. One possibility is pregnancy, another is infection and both should be seen by a gynecologist. Another less common problem is referred pain from the terrible ordeal you went through, this is harder to deal with and would require time and a psychologist to help you. Either way, you should see your gynecologist first.

Get checked: Are you able to go to a health clinic to be checked for pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and internal injuries? Having a knowledgable family medicine or gynecogist look for problems can reduce the risk for later complications and maybe help with peace of mind. I am sorry you are having to deal with this.
