Shaving when something's wrong?

Hi, so within the pay few days I've noticed that I've gotten a horrible itch around my vulva and especially in the area between and around my butthole and my vagina. There's also been a burning sensation, and it hurts to pee because it feels like there's tiny cuts in my skin. I know it's not an STD since I haven't had sex since January but I can't inspect the problem because I can't see anything. I go au naturale so my bush blocks the skin where everything's hurting. I want to make sure that I'm okay, but I have a feeling shaving would make things worse inflammation and pain wise. Suggestions?
