Clearer Skin Awaits You in Ocala & The Villages, Florida

Shingles, medically known as herpes zoster, is a painful skin rash caused by the reactivation of the chickenpox virus in the body. The condition can be distressing, often presenting as a stripe of blisters wrapping around one side of the torso. While shingles can occur at any age, it is more common in individuals over 50 or those with weakened immune systems. At DocFreeman Dermatology, located in Ocala and The Villages, Florida, we understand the discomfort and pain associated with shingles. Our dedicated team of dermatologists is committed to providing effective treatments to alleviate symptoms and prevent complications.

Shingles is not just a skin condition; it can lead to severe nerve pain, vision problems, and other long-term complications if not treated promptly. Recognizing the early signs, such as tingling, itching, or pain before the rash appears, is crucial for timely intervention. At DocFreeman Dermatology, we prioritize patient education, ensuring you are well-informed about the condition, its triggers, and preventive measures.
