What Causes Constipation With Pain In Kidney During Shingles?
Last November I was told I had shingles in my right leg. I took Acyclivir for it. My leg didn't ever break out but still feels like it's numb in the nerves atop. Now, months later March or so, I've been dealing with intermittent bouts of horrible pain in my left kidney. My intestines seem to be affected as well in that I'm more constipated than I ever remember being. Is it possible the shingles has moved into these inner organs and is causing such things as I described?
