Are Blisters On The Right Arm And Burning Sensation Due To Shingles While Having Subsequent Right-sided Pain In The Neck And Back?
My mother has what appears to be (doctors have told us) shingles on her right arm, however it is isolated to just her arm. The pictures online to not match what she has. She says it feels like someone is burning it from the inside. They recently told her to get an MRI as there is subsequent pain in her neck and back on her right side. What if not shingles could this be?
