I started this morning by having itchy scalp. Thought out the day I have been itchy on other parts of my body. Now I have a rash in my scalp, around my waist, on my ears, between my breast and under my breast, and on my butt cheeks. I have itchyness on arms and legs but no rash there yet. The question is could hives or shingles be in so many different places at once?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I have gone through your complaints and shingles never present at so many places. They occur unilaterally involving one side of the body. Hives can definitely develop at many places and present with wheals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
