People with chickenpox and shingles are the main source of infection and can spread through the respiratory tract as well as direct contact.

    Herpes zoster, known in traditional Chinese medicine as the "dragon", is a disease caused by the "chickenpox-zoster virus". It can occur all year round, especially when the body's immune function is weakened (such as overtiredness, frailty, or other chronic diseases), when the body's resistance is weakened, and the herpes zoster virus will take the opportunity to invade the body and cause the disease. However, if you get shingles once, your body will have lifelong immunity and you won't get shingles a second time.

    Herpes zoster has an acute onset. Before the onset of the disease, there is usually a slight fever symptom, and the patient feels unwell, has a poor appetite, and does not want to eat. There is a burning sensation on the ** in some areas, or there is neuralgia.

    Then, on top of the inflammatory erythema at these sites, blisters appear. The blisters form clusters, often arranged in bands, and generally do not exceed the midline of the body. In severe cases, bullae, blood blisters and gangrene may also occur.

    Herpes zoster often appears in the "intercostal nerve" of the chest and back, the "trigeminal nerve" and the "lumbosacral nerve" of the head and face. If the virus invades the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve, the herpes zoster in the eye is not only painful, but also the inflammation will affect the cornea or eyeball of the eye, which can lead to blindness, encephalitis, and in severe cases, death. Therefore, if you have shingles in your eyes, you should pay special attention to it.

    Neuralgia is the main feature of shingles. The degree of pain often worsens with age, so after the elderly have shingles, the pain is generally very severe and even unbearable for the patient.

    Patients who develop pain followed by a rash are often misdiagnosed. About more than half of the middle-aged and elderly patients, after the rash subsides, there will be stubborn neuralgia left on the **, and it lasts for a long time. Therefore, after suffering from shingles, it is necessary to be active as soon as possible, especially for middle-aged and elderly patients.

    Herpes zoster is based on the principle of analgesic, anti-inflammatory, prevention of secondary infection, and shortening of the time.

    In terms of pain relief, a kind of analgesic can be used, commonly used are: "oxoxacin", "carbamazepine", "tramadol", "indomethacin", etc.

    Neurotrophic agents can be vitamin B1, vitamin B2 and vitamin B12.

    There are many antiviral drugs, such as "Zhu Mingxin", "acyclovir", "cytarabine", "virazole", "viralin", etc., which can be used. "Interferon", "polymyocyte", or "thymus peptide" can also be used. These medications can improve symptoms, reduce neuralgia, and help shorten the duration of treatment.

    Physics also has a certain effect. Commonly used methods such as "audio", "electrotherapy", and "helium-neon laser irradiation" can have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects.

    Traditional Chinese medicine is also often used, and the general principle is to reduce inflammation and dampness. Commonly used is "gentian laxative liver soup", or with "big green leaves" or "banlan root" decoction water to take it internally.

    Do not puncture the local blisters to avoid bacterial infection and aggravation of the condition. If a secondary infection has been developed, a 3% boric acid solution can be applied to the blister.

    For herpes zoster in the eyes, try to use "acyclic guanosine eye drops" and "herpes net eye drops" eye drops.
