Hi,
It seems that you are having post herpetic neuralgia...PHN
It is a complication of herpes zoster.
It may ocur after few months to years following herpes zoster.
There may be mild to severe burnong sensations or dysasthesia..
You consult dermatologist.
Gabapentin or pregabalin for long time may improve the condition.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
