Thanks for the query.
You should meet a Dermatologist if that is convenient. Zoster usually do not relapse. Other family members who never had chicken pox should be advised to refrain from close contact with affected member or isolate the affected member as shingles can cause chicken pox in others. Hope it helps you. In my opinion a consultation is worthwhile.
Next Steps
You can meet a Dermatologist for proper examination.
