Cool Baths
Similarly, the coolness of a shower or bath would also help you alleviate the itchiness and pain caused by shingles. Scrub gently to keep blisters and sores clean. However, if you do this intensely, it might increase the risks of infections. Avoid too cold water because your sensitive skin would react and lead to more pain. Keep in mind to dry completely with a towel after bathing to prevent the infection from spreading to other parts of the body. [3]
