"I have shingles and pain, what should I do?"

If you have shingles and are experiencing pain, it is recommended to take a combination of Tylenol, Advil, and Morphine for pain relief during the active phase of shingles. Avoid applying anything to the active lesions as the fluid in them is very contagious. If the pain medication you are taking is not sufficient, it is best to consult with a pharmacist for alternative options. Wishing you a speedy recovery and resolution of your situation.
