Shingle is a painful viral infection on the skin that looks like a stripe of blisters, usually wrapping around your body. Shingles are actually caused by the Varicella-zoster virus, which is the same virus that causes chicken pox. After your chicken pox outbreak, the virus stays inactive in your body. When your immunity is low, this virus can be reactivated again. Shingles can be very painful and require treatments that include oral and topical medications.
