Symptoms Of Shingles Virus

The first symptoms of shingles virus outbreaks are pain in the area where the virus is reactivating itself.

Sensitivity, itching and muscle ache in the infected area and sometimes fever are usually the next stage of the shingles symptoms. This is usually followed after a few days with the actual shingles rash where small blisters filled with fluid appear.

The symptoms of shingles around the eye can cause vision problems if the nerves around the eyes are infected. The symptoms of eye problems with shingles include dryness, redness, blurred vision and light sensitivity.
