I am no professional but I researched lots after my husbands ordeal. If they also look like blisters (which may burst and ooze out fluid and get very itchy) , you may have shingles. You may also feel a stabbing like pain. If so, then you should get checked out as it might be shingles. My husband had it about 20 years ago and I had to completely soak the areas with several bottles of calamine lotion a few times a day to relieve the pain and itch. He was basically bed ridden for about 1 month as he had it bad with the itch and pain. He also used a pain killer such as Tylenol etc. The blisters have to basically dry up and will look crusty. That shows the healing and will be very itchy at that point as well. But I would see your doctor first. Even though my husband no longer has shingles he still feels the effects today sometimes.

Hope this helps. Do a Google search online for "SHINGLES" and see if that is what you might have. You will see pictures etc. Make sure you get it looked at by a your doctor.

Good luck.
