Hello. Thank you fpr writing to us

I am Dr. Kakkar (Dermatologist). I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern.
I would like to rule out Herpes Zoster if its only on one side but it could also be something else e.g bullous impetigo. I request you to kindly upload an image in "Reports Section" so that I am able to guide you better. I would also like to know if he has pain?or any other symptom?

Regards

He is not in any pain. It is only on the forehead and on the right eyelid. We are not very tech savvy and are using a laptop and do not know how to upload with a laptop. I could take a picture with my phone and text it to you. Please advise.
