Shingles?: The most common painful rash that occurs on one side of the body is shingles. Shingles is a rash that forms when the chicken pox virus gets reactivated. It can be very painful and it is best to initiate treatment in the first 48 hours. Please see your doctor as soon as possible for diagnosis and treatment.
