my daughter is only 4years old, we parents have observed that quite often she used to itch or scratches her private part of her body i dnt know why

A. If your daughter complains of a sore bottom or is scratching her genital area, she may have vulvovaginitis, an inflammation of the vulva and vagina. It's the most common gynecologic problem in young girls (particularly school-age girls), though it can occur at any age.You can purchase a sitz bath at most drug stores. Do not use soaps, bubble baths or perfumed products on your child. When they have signs of vulvovaginitis, it is a good idea to have your child bathe two to three times a day. Adding non-allergenic skin softeners to the water will help soften and soothe the vulvar skin.
