Chicken Pox, Shingles, & HerpeticHerpetic stomatitis Whitlow <-- Are these all of the same herpes virus? I had chicken pox when I was 3. I get the shingles outbreak on my left cheek buttox - hospital diagnosed - about a year ago, and it hurt to sit , even on the toilet. I get that outbreak like every four to five months -- ongoing. Now, I was just diagnosed with herpeticHerpetic stomatitis whitlow on my right handHand or foot spasms Hand tremor ( on the outter side of handHand or foot spasms Hand tremor, but under pinky ). I get that outbreak every 2 ta 3 weeks and it's ongoin too. Boy does it hurt. Perscriptions from the doctors don't work. If these 3 virus' are the same, can ya please tell me the differences between them? Please excuse the french, BUT -- What the hell is going on with me? If you could help me find the answers, I'd apprieiate it dearly.
shingles doesn't reoccur like this.
You need to go back and be better evaluated and have more testing done.
