I had shingles... once, so far... a spot smaller than a dime on my left forefinger... thought it was a spider bite 'cause my finger was losing feeling. Doctor said, "Nope, shingles". That was six years ago... most of the finger's sensitivity is back, but not completely; probably won't ever come back. Shingles is not something to scoff at... though I still haven't gotten the shot.
If I had a spot like that come up I probably wouldn't even go to the Dr.
I'm one of those people that it has to be pretty serious to go to the Dr since I spent so many years with no insurance.
I've suffered through a few broken bones and in fact I was nearly over COVID the first time I had it before it was diagnosed.
I just stayed home and in bed.
