What it is
Shingles
Also called Herpes Zoster, shingles is a viral infection that causes a painful rash, typically appearing on one side of the body. It is caused by the Varicella Zoster virus, the same virus responsible for chickenpox. Treatment focuses on controlling the infection while relieving pain and inflammation.

Recognizing the Symptoms and Causes of Shingles
Shingles typically begins with early signs like burning, tingling, or itching in a specific area, often accompanied by fever or headache. A red, blistering rash usually appears a few days later, following the path of affected nerves. Understanding these symptoms early can help you seek prompt treatment and reduce complications.
