[quote=Anonymous]Shingles does NOT typically present on the face. It can present on the face, but can present under the arms, along the torso, on the back. Shingles rash occurs in a band or strip on one side of the body. It follows the area where one of the nerves from your spinal cord connects with the skin, called a dermatome. Shingles usually appears along a dermatome, each of which is located on one side of the body. Shingles can strike any dermatome on the body. On very rare occasions, it can present as a slight rash on a dermatone, then migrate to your brain via the spinal cord. That's what happened to me, and I nearly died. I would get your elbow checked, but unless it is spreading to under your arm, it's probably not shingles. [/quote]
