I have pain in my back around to my side. it is a burning and tingling pain. i want to know if it is possible to have shingles without breaking out?

Rashless shingles: It is a common misconception that one has to have a rash to be diagnosed with shingles. It is not that rare to have pain, itching and other symptoms due to shingles without any visible rash. The symptoms should however still occur in what is called a dermatomal distribution; one that corresponds to a typical nerve territory.
