Comments

My shingles rash is starting my to get better. The rash is partly where my bra cup hits my skin. I tried to wear a lace bralet. As I’m getting ready for bed, I notice that parts of the rash are red and possibly oozing. Am I infectious again?

You sleep and live alone or with others? Shingles itself is not that contagious. The blisters contain viruses and very contagious to babies or toddlers.
