Shingles usually begins with a rash. Individuals begin to experience pain, itching, or numbness 1 to 5 days before the rash appears.¹ These persons will see a red, blister-like rash within 7-10 days. Other symptoms of shingles can include fever, headache, chills, and upset stomach.² In addition, shingles can cause a variety of complications, the most common being chronic nerve pain or postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) and herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO), where the rash affects the eye.^1,3
