A member asked:

Morning after being discharged from the hospital from covid-19 i had shingles and seemed to have recovered from it. however a tingling sensation appears now and then not painful. had the shingles in june on mt left side middle rib case?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A not uncommon issue: Post shingles sensitivity/tingling in the surrounding skin is common as the nerve in which the shingles virus inserted itself loses it's covering and may take upto a year to reform it and lessen the burning/stinging / sensitivity etc .
