Need help for grandma w shingles

Posted By Mavis (Lake City, Florida) on 09/22/2011

hi my grandmom is in pain with the shingles. My poor mom has to call me to put cream on her back and its working around the side like a rash. Im always pretend im a doctor and shes my patient I have to doctor on. I even have to wear gloves so I don't have to catch it. Every time I rub the cream in her back and side she cries out in pain. I try my hardest to rub gently whince in pain. So I'm trying my hardest to look up some home remedies cure shingles so I don't have to see my grandmom in so much pain. So whoever have shingles, god bless that it goes away completely. thank you.

Hi Mavis, Bless you for taking care of your grandmother. Have you checked all of the cures in the shingles section of Earth Clinic? There are a lot of good testimonials there. Just click on the link below:

Also, I've heard that taking sublingual B12 daily was very good at treating and preventing shingles. Most older people are deficient in B12. Echinacea 20 drops in water three times a day might help diminish the pain. Aloe vera is good to put on lesions mix some with lysine powder (open up the capsules and make a paste of it with the gel).

I hope you find something that works for your grandmother. Take care, Bess
