Brief Answer:
Cause should be confirmed

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Itching and burning in the vaginal area can be due to infection in the vagina or can be due to infection in the urine.
I will suggest her to consult an OBGYN specialist for proper examination and treatment accordingly.
She should get vaginal swab examination and urine examination done.
For the meantime, she can apply eumosone M ointment for relief.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Regards
Dr Deepti Verma
