Postherpetic neurolgia
I had shingles (harpes zoster) in Feb 2021 on left palm. First I went to dermat n I completed her medicine course. After one n half month my hand n left chest side was paining. That time I also consult another dr n he said it's due to shingles. The pain can remain upto 3 months n he gave me medicine again. I completed that medicine course too. Now again my right chest is paining. Is it post herpetic neurolgia? In my city there is no neurologist. Plz guide me.
