Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain And Itching When Diagnosed With Shingles
I have been suffering from the effects of shingle for more than 6 weeks now. I took I have taken two rounds of anti virus medication in the first two days of my breakout. I never got the scabs or large pimple like erruptions I was expecting, but severe pain and like nerve itches and cramping I the large area on my midrift and lower back. my fear is it weakened the progression and it will come back even worse.
