[|AI|]  HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor This rash can sometimes occur in stages, some areas are appearing when others are healing. It is the same as the original infection with chicken pox which would have been years prior. You would need to speak to your doctor and continue your antiviral as prescribed. Would also need to consider the shingles' vaccine if you qualify to prevent future breakouts. I hope this helps
