Is a girl sinful if she refuses to go to a doctor for treatment of continuous flatulence that accompanies her most of the time and during prayer, due to the unavailability of a female specialist?

There is no sin upon a girl afflicted with incontinence if she abstains from seeking treatment for it. It is permissible for her to do what a person with incontinence does, namely, perform ablution for each prayer after its time has begun. However, it is more preferable for her to seek treatment to avoid the differing opinions of the Maliki jurists.
