Yes it is possible to get shingles on various parts of the body. This is due to the chicken pox virus (varicella virus) lying dormant along those particular nerve endings waiting for you to become run down, unwell or low and then they go to work and give you an outbreak of shingles. Make sure you get some treatment to speed up the healing process and make it more comfortable for you whilst you're suffering.

Yes they can. It happened to me!! The first place they started was on my upper arm, near my shoulder and worked their way down...
