    2. "Abrupt type" or "insufficiency" herpes zoster: the patient's immunity is weakened, and the patient is susceptible to infection with viruses, and only erythema and papules appear without blisters.

    3. Bullous herpes zoster: It generally occurs in people with low immune function, such as old age, malignant tumors or long-term use of immunosuppressants. When the resistance is low or tired, infected, cold, the virus can grow and multiply, and move along the nerve fibers to **, so that the invaded nerve and ** produce strong inflammation.

    4. Hemorrhagic herpes zoster: The virus enters the human body through the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract and spreads through hematogenous, and then the content of the blister is bloody or forms a blood crust.

    5. Gangrenotype herpes zoster: This disease is caused by varicella-zoster virus, which is neurotropic and can move along the nerve to the ganglia of the posterior root of the spinal cord after invading the sensory nerve endings, and lurk there. When the host's cellular immunity is weakened, such as cold, fever, systemic lupus erythematosus and malignant tumors, the virus is stimulated, resulting in inflammation and necrosis of the ganglia, and the reactivated virus can move along the peripheral nerve fibers to **, causing herpes zoster in the nerve area, and then producing gangrenotype herpes zoster.

    2. Infection caused by viruses: Herpes zoster is also a viral disease, so it can enter the patient's body through the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract of the human sharp body, and then spread to the patient through the bloodstream.

    3. Decreased immune function: the body's immune function is also very related to the onset of herpes zoster, when the body's immune function declines, there will be colds, fevers and some malignant tumors, so that the virus in the incubation period will be quickly stimulated. Therefore, this is the main factor why shingles tends to develop in the elderly group.

The latent virus then reactivates and causes shingles.
