How to Remove a Stuck Tampon: Tips and Tricks for Safe Extraction. This video provides tips and tricks on how to safely extract a stuck tampon. In Part 1, the video advises acting fast and not putting off tampon removal, as leaving it for too long can cause Toxic Shock Syndrome. It is recommended to try removing the tampon yourself first, but if that doesn't work, seek medical attention right away. The video also recommends relaxing and taking a warm shower or bath to help ease tension. Additionally, proper hygiene is essential, so clean hands and trimmed nails are a must. In Part 2, the video advises tugging lightly on the string to see if the tampon will come out on its own, bearing down while sitting or squatting, and inserting a single finger while exhaling to locate the tampon. Finally, Part 3 suggests using lubricant before trying to remove the tampon and seeking medical attention if you are unable to remove it yourself after ten minutes of trying.
