Experience of treating 'shingles' with severe burning sensation even with just a light touch

I would like to share the symptoms of shingles that I experienced.

What kind of treatment should be received for shingles?

I will also explain the information you need to know about shingles.

 

At first, I felt a tingling sensation in my side, so I thought it was nothing and ignored it. The pain was felt with each movement, and when I lifted my clothes, I saw a red rash with a few blisters.

After two days, the rash area has become larger, so I...

The result of the consultation at the nearby dermatology clinic was shingles...

It was discovered at the hospital that shingles have spread up to the neck area.

It was a disease name I had never heard of before, and if the symptoms were severe, hospitalization was possible, but mine were not that serious, so outpatient treatment was sufficient.

 

I received a virus injection at the hospital, took the prescribed antiviral medication and painkillers, and applied ointment.

I took the medication for about two weeks, and the burning sensation when it touched my clothes disappeared, which seems to have taken about two months.

 

Shingles have scabbed over and fallen off as time passed, but scars remain.

Treatment was started within the golden time of 72 hours, and there were no complications.

 

Herpes zoster occurs when the varicella-zoster virus, which remains dormant in the body after chickenpox, reactivates along nerve pathways when immunity drops. It manifests as shingles in those who have had chickenpox, but appears as chickenpox in those who have not had it before.

It is contagious if you touch the blisters or if the blisters burst and pus gets on them, not through transmission by coughing or sneezing.

Although it seemed difficult for actual transmission, I still used a separate towel just in case.

 

To prevent shingles, avoid experiencing a lot of stress in daily life.

It is important to avoid excessive drinking, overeating, and overworking, and to maintain immunity through regular exercise and a balanced diet.

 

Last year, my parents in their mid-70s decided to get the shingles vaccine, so I looked into it and chose Singrix!!

I gave you a good one. Heh

Existing vaccine: 140,000 won, 40% prevention rate

Newly released (Singlyx) 2 doses, 480,000 won, 97% prevention rate

This is the price per person.
