Itchy Inner Lip Of Vagina, Red, Swelling. Applied Hydrocortezone. Vaginitis?

The inner lip of my vagina is itchy. I thought I needed to shave so I did, but it didn't help. I looked at it again and it was very red on the right side, where the itch was coming from. I put some hydrocortezone on it to relieve the itch and went about my day. As I was changing into my sweats for the night I looked at it again and noticed that it was a little bit swollen. Could this be vaginitis? What is wrong with me.
