When I had shingles several years ago I gently rubbed some St. Johns Wort extract into the affected area, then I put a few drops of lemon, and eucalyptus oils into a little coconut oil and rubbed that gently into the affected area. And it seemed to calm the nerve sensitivity and help dry up the blisters.
I am getting over the flu right now and developed achy overly sensitive bands of pain at my waist, and though I see no rash I am putting that mix on my skin again and it helped the pain and sensitivity diminish significantly.
