Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having worm infestation.
Worms coming out during night time and migrate to vagina producing itching and irritation on anal region and vagina.
It is also possible when local hygiene is not maintained proper.
Apply triple action cream.
Keeplocal hygiene clean and dry.
Go for stool test for ova and cyst.
After report go for anti-worm treatment after consulting your doctor.
Ok and take care.
