Shingles is a skin rash characterised by pain and blistering which usually appears on one side of the face or body. The virus responsible for shingles can be spread to a person who has not had chickenpox disease or vaccinations when a person comes into contact with the fluid contained in the blisters, either directly or indirectly.
