Actually, this is a suggestion. I have shingles. I ve found that maintaining steady pressure on the rash and blisters greatly reduces pain and itching. To do that, I am using a compression shirt and a large elastic bandage wrapped around my torso. I suggest making that suggestion on your website. Others may find it helpful.
Hello, Welcome and thanks for your suggestion. The reason why you feel less pain and itching is due to the counter pressure/ irritation which suppresses the sensation from the lesions. Even though it may have some relief to symptoms, it is no substitute for the well accepted medical treatments for shingles (Herpes Zoster) and without proper medications there is a chance for spreading of the lesion and causing harm due to the same. Do get back to me if you have further queries.
