female jock itch (tinea cruris) would not be high on my list based on your brief question. i suspect she has folliculitis - an infection of the hair follicles common in those who shave their pubic area -- a fad that is now all the rage in the teen and young adult crowd. public hair tends to be coarse or curly prone to "ingrown hairs" but a relative dull razor can cause numerous micro-cuts that can become easily infection. she is more likely to have a bacterial component than fungus. since this in this much pain a call to her medical provider may get a prescription for an oral antibiotic or at least a potent antibiotic cream stronger than the over-the-counter. a first-hand examination may be required so prepare her. no no to a razor! tell her to use a trimmer. they have pretty ones for women!
