Can Swelling In Eyelid, Bump In The Neck And Mark On The Eyebrow Be The Symptoms Of Shingles?
I thought I had a stye on my eye but the doctor said it MAY BE shingles. My eyelid was very swollen. I had a tiny bump in my neck. A mark on my eyebrow. No pain. He treated me with an antiviral, an antibiotic, a steroid and benedryl. I was extremely tired. I feel much better now. This was 9 days ago. Could it have been shingles?

Hi,
The symptoms might indicate shingles, however, a photograph of your eyelid would had helped assisting you further and better.
I am glad to come to know you are much better now. Once again, only a physical examination or the photo of the affected site would have helped saying you had shingles for sure.
Wish fast recovery!
