When it comes to pain, the NHS says it may be a constant, dull or burning sensation and its intensity can vary from mild to severe.
“You may have sharp stabbing pains from time to time, and the affected area of skin will usually be tender,” it adds.
The national health body adds: “Shingles usually affects a specific area on one side of the body and doesn’t cross over the midline of the body (an imaginary line running from between your eyes down past the belly button).
“Any part of your body can be affected, including your face and eyes, but the chest and abdomen (tummy) are the most common areas.”
