Ok, first of all in anyway u need to se a doctor and he will tell you for sure.
But just to give you some information. Hepres And Varicella Zoster are very closely retated virus, they are forme the Herpes viridae family.
Shingles are the Varicella virus (yes the pox) that remain in ur nerves. They generally can be diagnosed because they run through dermatomes, that is the path the nerves show trough the skin. Theres a dermatome that goes fromm the butt to the foot., so it can be it. Genital herpes only appear in a small area and doesnt have the burning pain shingles have. You MUST pay attention o this and have it checked. Shingles are not tnormal in people as young as you and much more uncomon twice! un less they have another disease that can debilitate their imune system. Please go have a check up to make sure u dont have anoother problem.

Sounds like shingles to me. See your doc to get some treatment for it and get some tagamet at the store to help too. My girlfriend had shingles on her buttocks almost two years ago and now has them in the peri area so they can easily be shingles but get them checked by the doc and get some medicine to help shorten the duration of them etc.
