What Causes Severe Itching In The Left Side Of The Shoulder And Back?
Severe itching over mid to low back, as well as upper back specifically the left shoulder, trapezius area accompanied by itching and I noticed this evening 2 scabbed over areas, 1 on the left shoulder and another over the right shoulder. Could this be symptomatic of shingles?? Not freaking out yet!!!
HI Well come to HCM This could be allergic condition hypersensitivity is very likely and may not be viral infection, contact dermatitis need to be ruled out, if I would be treating physician of this case then I would treat this with "Tab Hydroxyzine 10 mg three times in day" just be patience everything would be fine soon, take care have a nice day.
