Hello. If you are unable to comfortably restrain her to clean the area, it would be best to seek the help of a veterinarian. It is easy to injure these small animals and you may cut her skin or cause further irritation. She may have an infection where the urine collects, so the skin may be painful and irritated. It would be best to schedule an appointment with your veterinarian.
