Hi I TOOK MY MOTHER TO DOCTOR AS SHE WAS Having sever pain on back side just below shoulders. Also skin was red with watery blisters. Doctor looked and told harpies and gave 800mg tablet and ointment. Today is the first day she is taking the medicine but the pain is too much, how much time generally it takes to cure.
Sign and symptoms suggest herpes zoster. Along with oral acyclovir add cap tramadol and ondensantrone.It's due do spinal nerves involvement that's why pain is so much intense and burning. Nerve facet block is the best option to combat this severe pain.
