Shingles is a viral infection caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus — the same virus that causes chickenpox. It typically causes a painful, blistering rash and can lead to lingering nerve pain if not managed promptly. If you’re experiencing symptoms, early treatment can help relieve discomfort and reduce the risk of complications. At Perfect Meds, we offer fast, effective shingles treatment in Bradford through our Pharmacy First service, with both in-person and virtual appointments available.
Common Symptoms of Shingles
You may have shingles if you notice:
- Pain, burning, or tingling sensations
- A red rash that turns into fluid-filled blisters
- Sensitivity to touch in the affected area
- Localised itching or discomfort
The rash usually appears on one side of the body or face, and symptoms can develop quickly — making early treatment essential.
