Shingles is caused by the chicken pox virus. It is not common in children but does occasionally happen. The pain often precedes the rash. The rash will look like groups of little fluid filled vessicles on red bases that will follow one or a few nerves. One key to the diagnosis is that it will always be on one side of the body only except that it can slightly cross the midline in the back. If it is on both sides of the front it is unlikely to be shingles.

This helps determine which part of the body is affected by the eruption and aids in diagnosing the underlying cause. It can indicate whether the eruption is following a specific pattern or affecting only one side of the body, offering valuable information for healthcare providers to make an accurate diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.

Yes. But usually only on one side of the body since it's driven by neural pathways that don't cross the body's midline. You can get shingles wherever there are nerve endings.
Ask your insurance carrier. Zostavax is only available to people over 60 even if you have already had Shingles. If you are highly susceptible to repeated attacks, your Doctor will have to petition for an exception.

It’s best to check your plan documents or contact customer service directly to confirm coverage and any associated costs. Additionally, coverage may depend on age and other health factors, so reviewing your individual situation is important.
