Yep, mine is on my face, but did not effect the nerve of my nose, eye and ear. (Zoster lives in your nerves.)

But mine is very small compared to what i've seen on google images. But as for scaring, that's not really a concern of mine, as I do not have to look at myself

My dear wife had issue with it in hr ear ... it was excruciating for her.

The topical ointment Silvadeen (silversulfsalazine) sp ? is reported by many patients and people in my contact to work well to relieve the pain of varcella rash.

That's what they gave me and it worked fine along with the anti-biotics. 3 days before I received shingles, I played in this stank bar and they think I most likely got it from just shaking hands with one of the patrons or using their bathroom! My rash was pretty painful all down my lower back down to the tail of the spine....still have scars! I was actually lucky as I was informed that 90% of shingle sufferers actually get the rash on their face and become scarred for life!

You can acquire Chicken pox from others, not to my knowledge, shingles.
Shingles is an outbreak of the dormant varcella virus hiding in your nerve tissue.
Physiological stress usually trigger the outbreak along the dermatones.

I have seen thousands of cases of shingles in the hospital. Most are to the back and buttocks. In my experience outbreaks to the face are very rare.
But then most of my patients are > 70 years old ( more like 80 - 90 ).
There may be a difference in that population? Who knows.

My first attack was on my left temple when I was 37. It Is an exposure to Cp, but comes a shingles on any attack after cp. Delivering for FedExcrement, I came to a house where a little girl was in her panties, but probable struck with cp from head to toe- and cabin feaver. She bowled toward the door to answer my knock. I needed a signature. The mother cme to the door soon after, but I doubt she washed her hands after caring for her 5 year old. days later, I got it bad.

I'm sorry, Sans...let me reiterate that. It lies dormant in your body...but....if you come in contact with someone with has it or has another severe virus, itactually complicates your immune system and if your system hasn't been working too well to begin with (been sick for a while before the gig) it sometimes brings up the shingles outbreak....that and the fact I'm not a healthy little kiddie anymore...in my early 50's which makes me a perfect candidate for such problems!

Varcella Rash I like it.

Varcella Rash and the Itch, their new

Well maybe not Virgin Records, how about
Been Around the Block records.

Lynard, don't you know anything? lol

Varcella Rash has signed with the same label as Courtney Love and HOLE.

Sounds appropriate, right?

I had no idea the name of the album is "Lotions Coming".
Sounds like a "B" grade porno.. lol
