Can Mild Case Of Shingles Aggravate Wheezing?

I got a mild case of shingles about two weeks ago and on my left side of my back, breast and underarm pit was experiencing pain and numbness. THe blister outbreak was very small, a 2x4 section and are practically gone now. This week I have been wheezing on and off with a cough. Can this be related? I do have allergies , but have never experienced wheezing for this long in my life.

HI
Well come to HCM
Pain could be due to viral infection but other symptoms of wheezing, cough, may not be due to this but this could be separate condition of allergy and this need to be managed separately some time this comes on its own, hope this information helps, take care.
