Shingles pain can range from moderate to severe, often presenting as a burning or stabbing sensation. The discomfort is typically concentrated along the path of the affected nerve and is accompanied by other symptoms such as itching, tingling, and sensitivity to touch. The pain can be so intense that it interferes with daily activities, including sleep, work, and social interactions.
