Suggest Treatment For Muscle Stiffness Of Hip And Joint Pain While Having Shingles

Is stiffness and joint pain (non-acute) related to shingles? I have been treated twice with famiciclivir, and aside from continual Itching on my scalp (been going on for several years) and a few mysterious red itchy bumps (most recent appeared yesterday on by left back shoulder), I have not been experiencing the now-familiar electric shock sensation down my left arm. But the pain and stiffness in my hips, and less so in my knees has been a word for the past week or so. I m an active (tennis, golf) 74 year old female, in otherwise excellent health.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, what ever the symptoms you have all of that are not due to any viral infection even not due to any diseae but it is all are due to some emotional disturbances and it can be given try with Tab loratadine 10 mg three times in day, else stop worrying about these hope this information helps.
