What Causes Pain In The Jaw While Suffering From Shingles?
I I was told I have shingles, but in reading about it, it states that blisters will not appear on the lips only. The left jaw aches and I have a tingly/ prickly needles on the left side of my face. I have a cold sore on my lip but do not have any rash. Could it still be shingles?
