shingles treatment I'll try that next time

[Guest guest]

No need to be appalled. It is the only thing that has worked for her

so far. Her shingles usually start out with only one or two small

raised irritations maybe the size of a pencil eraser or smaller. If

we treat these it doesn't get worse. Not everyone is chemically

sensitive and a lot of women wear nail polish every day. Not that it

is good for you but try getting them to stop unless there is

something wrong with them.

 

Any way, thanks for the suggestion and I will try it next time to see

if it works on her.
