Hi,
Yes usually remains involving one dermatome only,but you have two dermatomes involved i belive. is hand also involved.
The treatment he has given can also be gven for herpes and is mostly ok and somethings could have been added.
Your doctor din't give you anything for itching,you can be prescribed if you have and should also be prescribed by an antibiotic so that no superinfections take place.
You can attach your photo if you want,i will be able to better tell you whether it is herpes or not.
Since how mant days you are having those lessions ?
