Itchy and red down below but not thrush?

Hope someone can help me and give me some advice until I can see the GP.

A few days ago I became very itchy and red down below almost swollen feeling and assumed it was thrush (which I've never had before) I went to see the pharmacist and had started using Canesten before I went.

The pharmacist says it doesn't think it's thrush as I have no discharge. She suggested BV but there is no odour at all.

It's still very itchy today despite using the Canesten and the itchy is not not only around my vagina but more upwards too.

Any ideas what it could be? Still red too.

I have a GP appointment booked bur couldn't get anything until late next week.

I had similar symptoms to you and it turned out to be an intolerance to the washing machine pods I was using. When ai changed to sensitive, non bio ones the symptoms cleared up.
