Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I leant over a railing by my (R) rib I felt like I got electrocuted. I thought it was a bruise my doctor thinks it is shingles. I have maybe one or two small pimples. She put me on Acyclovir and Gabapentin it is my second day. I feel a little less pain. Would you recommend I still get an X-ray or give the pills time? Also, would I feel more tired with shingles?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, in my opinion just do nothing now and wait for some time everything would be okay no need to worry about this but try to keep the stress at low level, try to come out of it, stop worrying, hope this information helps.
