How Long Does Shingles Take To Get Cured?
Hello, You can try analgesics like tramadol or gabapentin which are more effective for neuropathic pain as in shingles. Generally it will take five to seven days for complete recovery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
