Doctor stabbed womb during coil insertion

Exactly what title says..
She used a plactic stick thing to open my cervix I guess?
She ended up stabbing my womb. She apoligised greatly and said because I am 10 weeks post partum that my womb is still floppy..
Anyway, since then I've been in agony exactly where I felt the stabbing pain. I've been taking co-codamol all day but it isn't helping. She advised not to take ibroprufen as I'm breast feeding.
Is there anything stronger I can take? I am so sore

You need to speak to a doctor or pharmacist. You shouldn't make medical decisions based on information from strangers on the internet.

Call tomorrow and ask for a call back/ appointment if available, or if the pain is unbearable contact out of hours.

She probably didn't use a stick, but it was the coil you felt being inserted. If she has actually perforated your uterus that is something that can happen (rarely) and usually due to the dr not being careful enough. Go back and see her.
