How long can I expect the itching, swelling and general pain to last. I was diagnosed as acutely positive for Herpes Zostra NOS (shingles). The swelling seems to be much worse internally in the evening, making it difficult to sit without a great deal of pain. The doctor prescribed Prednisone, Valtrex, and Lidocaine they all help but none are stopping the evening pain making it very hard to sleep.
Thanks for any feedback
what medication and dose did they put you on?
how long has this been going on?
