Help- Post Burning/Tingling Not on Rash Site

Hello Everyone, I am new here hoping to get some feedback.

Had shingles that started about a month ago on upper left thigh area. Blisters scabbed and fell off already. The skin remains blotchy and sensitive at times, which I hear is normal.

However, I have noticed random tingling/zappers in other areas of body that didn’t have rashes. My left arm also is occasionally sensitive/feels slight burning sensations.

Is it normal to feel all these sensations after shingles in areas where the rash did not appear?

Wondering if these sensations I feel anywhere in body(not just rash site) are related to shingles or could be something else.

Any help is appreciated, thank you.
