Treatment must be: Treatment can only be delivered after a diagnosis. Your description is too vague for even speculation about whatever is happening. No one can tell you the best thing to do by means of your presentation. See a Dr, preferably a dermatologist.

Shingles?: If you have reddness of skin with some " bumps " like blisters and thay open and are sore - it coudl be Herpes or Shingles outbreak. it is ussualy one side of body and painfull or burning sensation - once wound get dry - it crust and heal over. You can get Rx medication to recover faster and prevent further pain. Apply cold aloe vera gel, vaseline.. ok . Moist towel.Check with your MD .
