Shingles is caused by a virus, varicella zoster. The typical symptoms of this disease are rashes in a cluster on one side of your body. It might start on your chest, face, or back and then spread to other parts of your body. Here are 5 early signs of shingles:
1. A burning sensation or pain on one side of the body. The pain is localised rather than being spread all over.
2. Sensations such as tingling, numbness, or shooting pain on one side of the body.
3. A general feeling of weakness and feeling drained out.
4. Fever accompanied by headaches and chills.
5. Stomach-related issues such as vomiting and diarrhoea.
If you notice such signs and additionally have a history of chickenpox, then you must consult a doctor and get checked for shingles.
