Red blisters itchy and spread painful needle like pain when they pop up. a family member 39 has shingles but dr says no, on my hands/arms age 33?

Prob not shingles: Your doctor probably is correct that this isn't shingles. "Hands and arms" (plural) suggests this rash is on both sides of your body, which doesn't happen with shingles. Continue working with your doctor; or see a dermatologist.
