How long does it take to cure shingles with medication?

Zoster takes a few days of medicine to get better, which is related to its own absorption capacity, ** status, age, and body immunity. Under normal circumstances, zoster children and adults will get better faster, and the elderly will only get better and slower, under normal circumstances, 7 to 15 days can be cured, and at the same time of recovery, we should pay attention to eating fruits and vegetables and actively exercising, only in this way, the body's immunity will be improved to be conducive to the recovery of the disease.

Now that you've been diagnosed with herpes zoster, oral acyclovir and topical acyclovir ointment are symptomatic. It is recommended that herpes zoster, which is caused by a viral infection, generally lasts 1 to 2 weeks, however, after shingles ** may leave a trail of neuralgia.

Herpes zoster will be painful when it is cured, because many people take medicine with infusion in the hospital**, and when they see the blisters disappear, they think they are getting better, but they are not. The pain does not decrease, or even worse, which is a clear symptom of herpes zoster neuralgia. Once the pain is found to be unrelieved, it must be replaced as soon as possible, the pain or post-herpetic neuralgia will not heal itself during the onset of the disease, and the ** of postherpetic neuralgia is to relieve pain and improve sleep, the focus is to remove the blister poison of the nerves, many people go to the hospital for infusion, but the blister poison is not in the body, but in the deep nerves, so there are many people who stay neuralgia after infusion.

For herpes zoster pain and posterior neuralgia, efforts can be made to promote their complete recovery.

1. Western medicine is mainly antiviral, if the condition is more serious and the pain is more severe, you can add some nourishing nerves and pain-relieving drugs, commonly used antiviral drugs are, infusion injections, acyclovir, ganciclovir, etc., but the probability of residual post-neuralgia is very large, and the number of people is large, it is recommended not to use.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine: It is believed that the blister poison is located at the end of the nerve, that is, the nerve, and the blister poison is not in the body or on the skin surface, so the infusion is ineffective or cannot completely remove the blister toxin, resulting in sequelae Many people. The use of liquid drugs can penetrate directly to the nerves, remove blister poison, and blister'Free'"Worried, herpes zoster for about a week, posterior neuralgia for half to 1 and a half months.

Moreover, during the initial herpes, the affected area can not touch the water and is easy to spread, and there is also herpes that likes heat and does not exercise much, and the sequelae do not need to be avoided.

3. Nerve block: In the early stage of postherpetic neuralgia, nerve block has a certain effect. Stellate nerve block, epidural block, paravertebral nerve block, and nerve trunk block can all be selected depending on the innervation of the painful site.

It has been reported that sympathetic nerve block can reduce pain in 70 to 80 patients within 3 months of the onset of herpes zoster, but the effect of nerve block is significantly reduced in patients with refractory postherpetic neuralgia that lasts for a long time. The cost is high, and it causes a lot of lifelong damage to the body, and there are many failed surgical cases.

4. Rest more, give an easily digestible diet and sufficient water, and avoid eating greasy food, seafood and eggs, poultry and poultry as much as possible, and eat some light food.

Half a month is about the same, bear with it, I got up on my waist once, it hurt to death, there is no good way.

Oral plus external rubbing, my symptoms are basically all cured in less than half a month. There has been no second attack for many years. It is important to remember that shingles must be treated in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital**, which is beyond the reach of Western medicine. It is not expensive to go to a provincial or municipal traditional Chinese medicine hospital.

Depending on the condition of each patient, the duration of ** varies. Herpes zoster is usually treated with medications**, such as acyclovir. In addition to some of the medications, patients with more severe herpes zoster are generally recommended to have a nerve block for the patient's pain symptoms.

But what needs to be paid attention to is that it must be done gradually, and you can't be too anxious.

It is advisable to go to the hospital and get the doctor to prescribe the medication.

Herpes zoster is caused by the varicella-zoster virus that infects the nerves** and inflammation of the nerves. If the patient has early, mild symptoms, the rash will completely subside after about 7 to 15 days of drug intervention.

Herpes zoster, commonly known as snake around the waist, is caused by varicella-zoster virus infection, mainly with pain and blisters as the main manifestations. In the early stages of the disease, some patients may have atypical symptoms. If this disease is not timely, it is easy to leave post-neuralgia, especially the older you are, the longer the delay, and the greater the possibility of leaving post-hereditary neuralgia.

Typical presentation. Before the eruption, there may be mild fatigue, low-grade fever, anorexia and other systemic symptoms, the affected area ** feels burning sensation or neuralgia, and there is obvious pain sensitivity to the touch, which lasts for 1 3 days, and the rash can also occur without prodromal symptoms. The most common sites are the intercostal nerve, cervical nerve, trigeminal nerve, and lumbosacral innervation area.

The affected area often first appears flushing, and soon appears milia to soybean-sized papules, which are distributed in clusters without fusion, and then quickly become blisters, the blister walls are tense and shiny, the blister fluid is clear, the periphery is surrounded by redness, and the clusters of blister groups are normal; Lesions are arranged in a band-like pattern along one peripheral nerve, usually on one side of the body, usually no longer than the midline.

The first time of herpes zoster is closely related to the patient's age and the body's resistance, which needs to be analyzed specifically.

Herpes zoster is a common disease caused by varicella-zoster virus infection, and the main clinical manifestation is clusters of blisters along the nerves, often accompanied by significant nerve pain. After the appearance of herpes zoster, if antiviral**, vegetative** and symptomatic analgesia** can be carried out in time, usually within about 2 weeks, the patient's blisters will rise and dry up and crust over, and the skin lesions will recover. However, local nerve damage tends to recover more slowly and can last for a longer period of time.

Especially in the elderly, it often takes 1 month or even a few months for the pain of shingles to subside. However, for young people, the symptoms are often mild, and some people may not need 2 weeks, but only need about 1 week for the rash and pain to basically subside.

During the illness, people with shingles should take care to avoid touching and scratching the rash. If there is blister oozing, it is necessary to keep it clean to avoid further noise and terrestrial infection, which will aggravate the condition.
