Shingles is caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, which also causes chickenpox.
Painful skin rash caused by a viral infection. It is usually known as an age-related disease, but age
Young people also occasionally develop the condition.
Prevention of shingles
It is recommended to administer vaccination to adults who have not received the varicella vaccine to prevent chickenpox.
There are two types of shingles vaccines -> a newer recombinant vaccine and an older attenuated live virus vaccine.
Older versions of the live virus vaccine are no longer available in the United States, but they are still available in many other countries.
Newer reassembled vaccines contain only parts of the virus.
Recombinant vaccines are preferred, and it is recommended for healthy individuals aged 50 and over, regardless of whether they have had chickenpox or shingles in the past or have previously received a shingles vaccine.
The reconstituted shingles vaccine is administered intramuscularly in a two-dose regimen. The doses are given at intervals of 2 to 6 months, and for individuals who have previously received the (attenuated live virus) vaccine, the new vaccine is administered at least 2 months after the previous vaccination.
Recombinant vaccines significantly reduce the risk of developing shingles and postherpetic neuralgia.
Taking antiviral medication when shingles occurs can reduce the risk of developing postherpetic neuralgia.
Treatment of shingles
Several antiviral medications are included in the treatment of shingles.
Antiviral drugs such as famciclovir or valacyclovir are especially for elderly and immunocompromised individuals.
It is administered frequently.
Acyclovir is sometimes used, but penciclovir or valacyclovir are generally preferred.
These medications are taken orally.
Medication should be started as soon as shingles is suspected. If possible, it is better to begin before blisters appear.
After the blister appears and more than three days have passed, the medication will no longer be effective.
These medications do not cure the disease, but they can alleviate shingles symptoms and shorten the duration of symptoms.
If the eyes or ears are infected, you should see a specialist (ophthalmologist or otolaryngologist) appropriate for the condition.
Swelling helps alleviate the wound, but painkillers are often necessary.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or acetaminophen may be tried, but oral opioid analgesics are sometimes necessary.
To prevent the progression of bacterial infection, people infected with shingles should wash and dry the affected skin and never scratch the blisters.

대상포진은 정말 걸리면은 아프다고 하더라구요 무섭지요

저 몇년전에 욱하고 벌레가 문듯한 아픔이 갑자기 와서 며칠동안 운동후 알배긴 그런 약간 묵직한 통증이 있었는데 수포가 생기거나 하지는 않고 옷에 쓸려서 아프거나 하지도 않았죠. 결국 약먹고 바로 치료가 되었는데 정말 운이 좋은 케이스라고 하네요. 다음에도 또 올까봐 건강하게 지내려고 운동하고 스트레스 안받으려고 노력하고 있습니다
