Common Skin Conditions
Shingles
Shingles, also known as “herpes zoster”, is a viral infection caused by the chicken pox virus. Chicken pox virus remains dormant or inactive in nerve root cells of the body and can become reactivated by stress, trauma or illness with lowering of immunity. The rash is characterized by burning, pain, tingling, or extreme sensitivity in one area of the skin. This then progresses to a red, linear, rash that turns into a group of blisters, usually only on one side of the body. Shingles usually occurs only once and seldom recurs. It is best treated with prescription medications.
