What do you do for shingles intense nerve pain

Using cbd gummies with thc and gabapentin for severe shingles nerve pain. Hope they are ok together. This is for my husband.

Also think the combination of thc and gabapentin may cause significant drowsiness. There are topical CBD creams that may help rather ingesting gummies. Topical goes directly to the nerve pain caused by shingles vs taking something that circulates your entire system.

I find folic acid helps. At the first flare I got a steroid and vitamin shot that may have reduced the severity of the outbreak

You have to take the folic acid by a shot or can you just take the vitamins?
