Hello,
The urinary tract infection has to be ruled out in her case.
For that urine routine microscopic examination has to be done for primary work up to check for the presence of pus cells and bacteria.
You can revert back with reports once done.
Meanwhile, continue lots of water drinking and avoid excess spicy foods intake.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
