Herpes zoster or herpes as it is commonly known is caused by the re-activation of the dormant chicken-pox virus acquired in childhood.Chicken pox when suppressed with strong medicines, leads to vesicles not coming out completely & the virus resides near the spinal cord in the dormant state.At some stage in life they become active again & lead to herpes zoster.It is characterised by a burning or tingling sensation or a rash along a nerve anywhere on the skin, followed by appearance of vesicular eruptions which multiply rapidly.There is severe pain along the affected nerve & characteristically they are along a single line & only on one side of the body either right or left.The disease lasts about 2 weeks but at times there could be ulceration of affected areas & in some cases the pain might persist for years after the infection has subsided (This is what is known as post-herpetic neuralgia).Herpes is dangerous if it occurs on the face for if the eye is involved, it could lead to permanent blindness.
Allopathy offers no treatment of this disease except for some anti-viral drugs which do not relieve the pain at all.Homeopathy prevents the spread of the disease as well as ulcerations & relieves pain.It can also be used to treat the ulcers if they have formed & also for the treatment of post-herpetic pains if they persist, as they often do, long after the disease has subsided.
Common homeopathic medicines / remedies used for herpes zoster & post herpetic neuralgia are : Aconite, Ranunculus bulbosus, Apis, Cantharis, Dulcamara, Rhus tox etc.
