[|Human|] I have shingles. I ve had it for about 10 days and the original rash is clearing up...it s getting brown, as I was told it would. I had a lot of pain on my left side from under my breast to my waist. I thought my rib was broken. it was very painful. I got medicine (valacycloir) on Saturday1/20/18 from quick-care. I went to my GP yesterday and my shoulder blade was very sore, like it needed a chiropractic adjustment. It even hurts under my arm. It is on the RIGHT SIDE. My GP said it couldn t be shingles because it stays to one side of the body. But, today I went to the Chiro to adjust it and it continued to hurt. He said it WAS SHINGLES. AND EVEN IF IT IS ON THE OTHER SIDE...he has seen it plenty of times....it can come out on both sides. What do you think? What an illness. It s very painful and unpredictable!!
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for your query on Chat Doctor"As"per your clinical history is concerned please follow like this -1)If confirmed clinically then discuss with your Doctor about [Capsaicin cream, codeine, lidocaine spray]for relief of pain.2)Do complete your course of antiviral [val acyclovir]as prescribed by your Doctor with oral [corticosteroids]. For prevention discuss with your Doctor about shingles vaccine and in future it will protect against complications. Hope that helps
