| Treating Herpes zoster ownway | | 2008-06-26 12:16:55 | | My closely related person has acquired Herpes last week, so i start learning about Herpes zoster. Here are some very essential points that i have gathered for the patients of Shingles.You can't prevent yourself from contracting shingles.

| | Home Remedy for Shingles(Herpes Zoster) | | 2008-06-19 16:11:14 | | Shingles, also called herpes zoster, gets its name from both the Latin and French words for belt or girdle and refers to girdle-like skin eruptions that may occur on the trunk of the body. This is very interesting that the virus that causes chickenpox, the varicella zoster virus (VSV), is mainly responsible for this painful condition. The virus actually become dormant in nerve cells after an episode of chickenpox and later reemerge as shingles. Initially, red patches of rash develop into blisters. As the virus travels along the nerve to the skin, it can damage the nerve and cause it to become inflamed. This condition can be very painful. If the pain persists long after the rash disappears, it is known as post-herpetic neuralgia.First infection, at whatever age it occurs, is called primary infection.
