A member asked:
Hi, i have a schingles scab on my forehead. it's been about 2 weeks already and it's getting smaller as time goes on. can i remove it or peel it off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Schingles: If the scab is getting smaller after about 2 weeks, I think it would be best to watch for a few days. If you or your family think it is not getting better, please see your doctor as soon as possible.
