If shingles is produced by a virus found within nerves, what mechanism is responsible for producing blisters on the skin?
It is part of the virus’s shedding process.
“Upon reactivation, the virus replicates in neuronal cell bodies, and virions are shed from the cells and carried down the axons to the area of skin innervated by that ganglion.” – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shingles
