Herpes Zoster

2020-08-20 03:36:17
I am  31 years old. I am currently suffering from shingles (Herpes Zoster). I have suffered few years ago  from the same. So far I never had a chicken pox. Through online I inferred people above 60 years only will generally have shringles. People who suffers from shingles in young age are those who have weak immune system, treatment for cancers,etc..I am little worried. Can you please advise.
