Hi,Ram,
Thanks for query,
Harpies you mean Herpes Zoster.
there are few sites where herpes can occur.
One of the site is affecting trigeminal nerve.
After headache few days later herpes blister appears.
In your case it might appeared on the forehead.
Go for antivirus like acyclovir tab,it will work if it is started 2-3 days of herpes.
Take antibiotic if super added infection is there.
Take analgesic and antiinflammatory medicines.
Apply triple action on affected area,
Put antibiotic eye drops.
Ok and bye.
