Hi there! The best time to cure shingles is within 48 hours of skin damage. Mild cases can be cured by folk methods, however, you should still go to medical facilities to be treated in the first place, to avoid infection. If left to later, the treatment results will be poor and can leave sequelae lasting for many months, years, even pain for life, especially for middle-aged people. The sequelae that shingles leave behind are bruises that will fade and fade from 3 to 6 months. Complications can be long-lasting ulcers, keloid scars, concave scars, white marks or bruises caused by post-inflammatory pigmentation disorders...
