Beautician gave me white creamy stuff that smelled like perm neutralized and said to use it on shingles. Pain relief and cleared in a week.

    But other than that beauty cream did you take anti viral meds during the 72 hours of shingles?  Because shingles do clear up the rash in a week alone!

    It’s the aftermath that kicks in with pain and itching 

    If the cream worked by itself then it’s great because that is what we want relief!

    Hi Judy happy the white smelly stuff worked for you. Can you share what it is...?

    It would be good if you could find out the name of this lotion and post it for others who have shingles. I don't believe I can use it in my eye which is where mine is located. Thanks for the info

    After millions of shingles long time sufferers this remedy doesn't add up.

      Well it’s true,  but what works for one individual might not be effective for other!

    Hello Judy

    It’s been 8 weeks since my shingles!  The blisters have crusted and now I have scars from the scabs!  My head is cleared and just the scabs now

    Let me know if you have scabs from the blisters as well!  Hope to hear from you
