SHINGLES- Ayurvedic Treatment, Diet, Exercises, Research Papers, Yoga & Pranayama

Herpes zoster (HZ) infection, commonly called shingles, is the reactivation of a latent varicella zoster virus (VZV) that caused an earlier episode of chicken pox. It is actually a complication of herpes infection. A few of the infected people are affected with this complication. As it is a severe and painful condition, most of the cases are managed as emergency. It is an infection of a nerve and the skin around the area of nerve course. It is characterised by pain or a tingling sensation, in a limited area on the side of the face or torso, followed by a red rash with blisters. The fluid filled blisters spread fast and are extremely painful.

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

Unilateral, fluid-filled blisters with severe pain and burning sensation. Sometimes itching is present.

The rash usually follows the course of the affected nerve.

CAUSES

It occurs over the dermatome innervated by the ganglion, where the virus(Varicella zoster) resides for life until stress, immunosuppression, or some other condition allows it to travel to the skin served by the affected nerve.

PATOFIZYOLOJI

Varicella-zoster virus is a highly contagious DNA virus. Varicella represents the primary infection in the nonimmune or incompletely immune person. During the primary infection, the virus gains entry into the sensory dorsal root ganglia. How the virus enters the sensory dorsal root ganglia and whether it resides in neurons or supporting cells are not completely understood. The varicella-zoster virus genome has been identified in the trigeminal ganglia of nearly all seropositive patients. The virus remains latent for decades because of varicella-zoster virus–specific cell-mediated immunity acquired during the primary infection, as well as endogenous and exogenous boosting of the immune system periodically throughout life. Reactivation of the virus occurs following a decrease in virus-specific cell-mediated immunity. The reactivated virus travels down the sensory nerve and is the cause for the dermatomal distribution of pain and skin lesions.

TEŞHİS

Clinical evaluation on the basis of the characteristic appearance of the rash.

TREATMENTS

A live, attenuated vaccine aimed at boosting immunity to Varicella zoster virus and reducing the risk of Herpes Zoster. The vaccine has been shown to reduce significantly the incidence of both HZ and Post Herpetic Neuralgia.

PROGNOSIS

Early recognition and treatment can reduce acute symptoms and may also reduce Postherpetic Neuralgia.

COMPLICATIONS

Serious nerve pain, called post herpetic neuralgia

A randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study in 18 countries to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HZ/su in older adults (≥50 years of age), stratified according to age group (50 to 59, 60 to 69, and ≥70 years) was conducted. The HZ/su vaccine significantly reduced the risk of herpes zoster in adults who were 50 years of age or older.
