Shingles :
Shingles is a viral infection and a secondary manifestation of an activated varicella zoster virus, which caused chicken pox in the first place. It is characterized by presence of itchy and burning band of rash or fluid filled blisters on any part of the body like chest, arms, legs, neck and face. It can be erythematous, may cause tingling sensation and mild to moderate pain in the affected area. Shingles is initially accompanied by fever, chills, headache, light sensitivity, stomach discomfort and generalized body fatigue.
Shingles is not a contagious infection; however, a person with shingles can cause chicken pox in people who are not exposed to varicella zoster virus earlier in general, and have not been vaccinated against chicken pox. There is no cure for shingles but there are medications such as antiviral drugs (acyclovir/valacyclovir) and pain killers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen to manage the symptoms of shingles and the postherpetic neuralgia.
