Use tucks pads after bowel movement. is it safe for pad to be near vaginal area? may have gotten close while cleaning. i think witch hazel would be ok. dont want infection or irritation?

Safe for use: You sound as,if you are using the pads correctly. While the pads may not be made for vaginal use, anatomy would mean they are necessarily close. You should not get irritation or infection as you describe use.
