What to do if there is still bleeding two weeks after the menstrual period?

Patient's question:

I had an abortion ten days ago, and my lower abdomen still hurts with coffee-colored discharge. I went to a regular maternal and child health hospital, where I received intravenous fluids for two days and was prescribed Xiaoran Ornidazole Tablets, Yunnan Baiyao Gongxuening Capsules, Fuyan Kangfu Tablets, and a bottle of Motherwort. However, the bleeding did not stop and was as heavy as it was right after the abortion, with all fresh blood. I called my attending physician, and he said that as long as the blood is clean, it's fine. I am very worried and don't know what to do. This is my first pregnancy, and I don't want to leave any aftereffects in the future. I still want to have children later, so I am very anxious and worried. Please, I really need your help to tell me what to do. Is this normal? Please, I must have an answer!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the amount of bleeding after an induced abortion should be less than the amount of menstrual bleeding, the bleeding duration should be less than 2 weeks, and the abdominal pain should generally not exceed 3 days. If these standards are exceeded, it should be considered possible intrauterine residual, incomplete uterine involution, or uterine cavity infection, and it is necessary to actively go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis to provide symptomatic treatment.
