Shingles is contagious and can be spread from an affected person to babies, children, or adults who have not had chickenpox. But instead of developing shingles, these people develop chickenpox. Once they have had chickenpox, people cannot catch shingles (or contract the virus) from someone else.
Summary. Tanning with shingles is definitely not a good idea. Shingles is a contagious disease during the phase when patient develops blisters till the formation of crusts, patient should be careful to cover the blisters in order to stop the disease from spreading.anning a lot is never good for your skin, with or without a rash. I don't have advice on the shingles, but you should reconsider the tanning. I am 23 yrs old and 2 years ago I had a sore that later turned into a scab on my arm.
