Understanding Shingles

Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is a viral infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus—the same virus responsible for chickenpox. After a person has had chickenpox, the virus can reactivate later in life, leading to shingles.

Common Symptoms Include:

  • Painful Rash: Shingles typically presents as a painful rash that may develop into fluid-filled blisters.
  • Localized Pain: Intense pain is often experienced in the affected area, even before the rash appears.
  • Flu-Like Symptoms: Some individuals may experience fever, headache, and fatigue.
