I can always feel a tampon

It doesn’t matter what absorbency level, which brand, how I put it in, how far I put it in, if my flow is light or heavy, etc., I CAN ALWAYS FEEL IT. Sometimes it hurts and sometimes it’s just uncomfortable.

Please don’t tell me I’m inserting it wrong, I’m not. I’ve been using tampons since I was 14 (I’m almost 30) and this has only happened within the last few years or so. Please don’t tell me I need to use a cup, I don’t want to.

What could be the issue? Is my vagina crooked or something? Is something WRONG with my vagina? I can’t use pads all the time. They cause me chaffing and I hate sitting in my own blood.
