Shingles can hit any part of your body. When shingles are in the lungs, the body rises to the defense by sending fluid, most notably mucus, just as it does when you've contracted a virus or a bacteria. It takes longer to heal and there is a period of dryness after the shingles leave, just as the process for a cold sore. It's the same thing, only on the inside.
