Redness In Vagina, Painful, Peeling Of Skin. Was It Due To Shaving?

Hi,

Recently shaved, a few days ago, after my period ended and about a day or two ago my vagina started to feel sensitive. There's some redness and it hurts, but there's no unusual discharge, however I did notice that my skin may have peeled off where the redness is. Not sure if it's from the hair growing back or just maybe going to sleep right after a shower not allowing myself to really dry up, I did that the past two days.
