Hi, Does anyone have any experience / knowledge about returning to swimming after a case of Shingles? I'm a 53 year old female. Thank you!

    Hi i had a case of shingles in the middle of my back about 10 years ago. It hasn't returned but every time I swim it gradually gets itchier and itchier. I get very funny looks from other swimmers when I pause at the end of the lane and start rubbing my back up and down on the pool side. Ahh.... but it does feel GOOD :bliss:
