Hello,
I am 22, and I have just recovered from chicken pox; the rash began in the beginning of February, and quickly healed.
However, I have still reddish-pink scars on the face and on the trunk. Is it normal to have these scars after one month? First, I wanted to know something: when will these marks disappear?
Secondly, sometimes, I have pain on my chest, in the right side. I am terrified it could be shingles. Is it possible to have shingles quickly after chicken pox? Indeed, although I made two HIV tests which were negative two years ago (I did not take risks since then), I fear I could have HIV. In this case, could shingles appear so quickly after a chicken pox episode?
Thank you.
