FJ why not try putting a bit of anti fungal cream on it to see if that works? Broad spectrum anti-fungals are readily available over the counter at pharmacies and I don't think it could hurt to give that a try (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

Yeah I have been hunting the house for the nappy cream i have (had) that was antifungal but can't find it. Its actually looking a little better tonight. seems to have scabbed over after my shower. See what its like in the morning.

eta - Im sure its not shingles now. It never blistered like it says in does on the wikapedia site.
