Thank you for commenting on my situation.
All symptoms have subsided now. It was painful when I had it.
It's strange that my replies/comments suggest Shingles. I have neard the word "Shingles" as much as I have this year. I have 3 people who are close to me who have had it. Only one that I came in contact with. I know shingles is not new, and I'm in the age bracket (and my friends), 60 - 70, to get it. I am now seriously considering the vaccine for Shingles.
Do you know anything about this? Comments"
Thank you again for taking the time.
Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Well yes, consult a doctor. It could be a localized blood clot or it could be a nerve compression. It can also be a patch of dry skin or eczema or even shingles.
Please consult your PCP for primary examination.
Take care!
You might have a mild case of shingles. I would have it checked because if shingles, the burning and pain will increase. With this being close to your eye area as well I would be concerned with shingles in your eye.
Perhaps you have shingles. Any pain with this?
