What is the disease of the belt snake , which is really that terrible

Recently, Ms. Jiang has developed some erythema around her waist. She had heard that if such a red spot went around the waist, a person would die. She was so frightened that she hurried to the hospital for a check-up.

The doctor confirmed that Ms. Jiang's erythema was only an allergy caused by clothing. What Ms. Jiang heard was the local commonly known "belt snake" in Wenzhou, that is, red spots appeared on the waist, accompanied by the pain of acupuncture. It is said that after this erythema goes around the waist, the patient dies.

What exactly causes this erythema? Is it really as scary as the rumors say?

According to the doctor, the "belt snake" is actually shingles.

It is also a more common disease in outpatient clinics, which often occurs after the decline of human resistance, and is more prone to occur in the elderly and people with work fatigue and stressful life. This type of shingles usually occurs only on one side and does not wrap around the entire lumbar area, and often occurs in the costo-shoulder nerve and trigeminal nerve.

area. Viral herpes.

Patients usually experience symptoms such as unilateral pain, pins and needles, burning sensation, paroxysmal nerve pain, etc. Because the first few days of illness only feel pain, there are no other symptoms, which can easily lead to misdiagnosis. However, with the accumulation of doctors' experience.

When an internist encounters such a patient, he will ask the patient to go to the ** department. If a person dies of herpes, the cause of death should be the primary disease, which is the underlying condition.

There are many traditional methods of "belt snake", such as applying herbs externally. Dr. Ji Hezi emphasized that the current external application of traditional Chinese medicine only hides the superficial symptoms, and it will still leave sequelae pain, which can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Western medicine can be prescribed to the right medicine, which will reduce nerve damage, shorten the pain time of the disease, and have a quick effect and less sequelae.

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of patients with shingles in outpatient clinics, and doctors remind patients to pay attention to the early stage**. In the early stages of shingles, patients usually have a mild fever.

Symptoms such as fatigue, general malaise, loss of appetite, etc., followed by unilateral local erythema, light itching, burning sensation or burning pain, etc., and there are also asymptomatic onset. Generally, within three days of the onset of the disease, antiviral, symptomatic anti-inflammatory, analgesic**, easy to heal, and the sequelae of nerve pain.

There are also very few chances of it happening. Due to the age of onset and the difference in resistance, generally 10 to 15 days can be **, will not be infectious, and lifelong immunity. Therefore, it is very important to detect the disease early, and if it is not done in the early stage, it may leave the sequelae of stubborn and intractable nerve pain.
