Just say the word “shingles” and people cringe. Shingles affects about 1 million people in the United States each year. As we age, our risk of developing shingles increases. This painful eruption can occur at any age, but over half of the cases involve people 60 years and older. One out of 2 people aged 85 and older will develop shingles. Healthy Hints will cover the risks of getting shingles, common symptoms, the potential long-term negative consequences and how to minimize your risk.
