Hello,

Welcome to ehealthforum

Burning after douching can be indicative of vaginitis,infection or allergy.It is recommended to avoid douching as vagina has a self cleansing mechanism and it can disrupt the normal vaginal flora leading to infections.
If the burning and pain persists consider visiting a Gynaecologist for evaluation and medications if required.Meanwhile avoid douching and intercourse.

Take Care!
