No not on you. However please note that shingle are infectious to other people. Shingles are the same as chicken pox (the same virus) thus if you have shingles you can give other people chicken pox. Also NORMALLY you can only get shingles if you have had chicken pox earlier in life.

In India when chickenpox was prevailing I haven't seen the patients taking shower till the rashes dry up..ie an average 10 days..and for skin irritation (I am 64 years now)the patients use neemleaves branches for brushing and no fried items till cured and at the entrance they use to hang neem leave branch that there is some one at home having chickenpox and a warning that this is infectious.. Ultimately my answer is no showers for a minimum 10 days...after the blister breaks,subsides cold shower with slow movements and tropical cream after the bath to be continued for next 1 week...

Yes, shingles are not contagious . However, the temperature and force of the water may be painful, so keep the water temperature and flow as low as you can tolerate. You will need to obtain prescription medication to treat this painful disease, as it may last longer than viral infections seen with cold sores.

Shingles are not contagious. Therefore, taking a shower will not risk spreading the shingles. You can shower just like you normally would.

How do you kill algae in shower and on roof shingles?

I'm not to sure but you could replace all the roofing with new shingles dark enough to disguise the staining, or with shingles laced with copper granules, which are lethal to algae. But that would only make sense if the shingles were worn out. To keep the algae from coming back, insert 6-inch-wide strips of zinc or copper under the row of shingling closest to the roof peak, leaving an inch or two of the lower edge exposed to the weather.

What medications that you may have taken in the past could contribute to shingles?

Since shingles (herpes zoster) is a viral infection that often emerges opportunistically after an impairment of the immune system, steroids such as prednisone taken for longer periods of time (weeks to months) may sufficiently lower the immune system as to allow this virus to become active.
