Hello @layla123 - I moved your discussion and combined it with an existing discussion titled, "Postherpetic Neuralgia (Shingles) nerve damage" - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/postherpetic-neuralgia-shingles-nerve-damage-around-eye-eyebrow-forehead-scalp-8/.
Although the first post was made in 2012, the discussion on how to manage this diagnosis continues to be an active conversation of members sharing what they have tried. @karenpadon2024 and @clkurth discussed a few creams that have worked some. @user_chf56161a has also discussed taking Lyrica for this condition as well and may have some experiences to share with you.
