Herpes Zoster, often known as shingles, is a condition marked by a one-sided skin eruption. It’s caused by the reactivation of the Varicella-zoster virus, which is also responsible for chickenpox, residing in the dorsal root ganglia.
Homeopathic remedies offer significant relief from symptoms of Herpes Zoster. They are safe for use either as a standalone treatment or alongside antiviral medications. Patients often turn to homeopathy at our centers either as a preferred safer alternative or when conventional treatments have not provided relief.
Starting treatment in the early stages of Herpes Zoster can also aid in preventing or reducing the severity of post-herpetic neuralgia.
Homeopathic medicines expedite the healing of vesicles and pustules and alleviate systemic symptoms like fatigue, malaise, and fever. For those suffering from post-herpetic neuralgia, which is a persistent pain following shingles, homeopathy offers considerable relief.
The initial stage involves tingling, itching, or sharp pain in the dermatome—the skin area innervated by the affected nerve.
Characterized by symptoms of fatigue, malaise, low-grade fever, and a dermatomal rash. The rash progresses from vesicles to pustules and then to crusts, typically healing within 14-21 days.
Post-herpetic neuralgia dominates this stage. Patients experience burning pain in the affected dermatome after the rash resolves. While the pain usually subsides in a few weeks, it can persist for months or even years in some cases.
