Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 91 year old mother is in a nursing home and has just been diagnosed with shingles. She has the rash on the back of both upper arms, across the top of her chest, and a small spot on her back. Is it normal for this many areas to be affected? What can be done to treat it? She had a small stroke on October 2, 2015. Could the stress of the stroke have brought on the shingles?
