What is shingles?
Shingles is a painful blistering rash caused by the chickenpox virus waking up again in people who have had chickenpox.
Causes and risk factors
After chickenpox the varicella-zoster virus stays dormant in nerves; older age, stress and a weak immune system make it more likely to flare.
Symptoms of shingles
- A rash of blisters in a band
- Pain that may continue after the rash heals
- Fever and tiredness
- Itching
Prevention tips
Ask your doctor about the shingles vaccine if you are eligible, manage stress and avoid contact with others while blisters are present.
How shingles is treated
Shingles is best treated early, ideally within three days of the rash. A prompt video visit lets the doctor confirm the diagnosis and prescribe antiviral medicine and pain relief where suitable. Depending on your case, the physician may suggest antiviral tablets such as aciclovir or valaciclovir, plus pain relief.
- Avoid contact with pregnant women, babies and anyone who has not had chickenpox
- Use simple pain relief as directed on the pack
- Cover blisters with a non-stick dressing
