no relation to scarlet fever. but if she's ever had had chicken pox as a child then she has a 1 in 3 chance of getting shingles.
can i get shingles after having scarlet fever as a child? . my mother is 80 and has been iin a lot of pain the last few weeks with her hip; now she has a red rash very painful. just appeared tonight. it has a burning sensation. is is possible she could have shingles? should i take her to the er for treatment? . thank you
