Herpes zoster also called  shingles  is a viral disease , caused by varicella zoster virus or VZV, the chicken pox virus and affects unilateral nerves. Anyone who's had chickenpox may develop shingles.

Herpes zoster infection is a rather common viral infection. The manifestations of this infection can range from subtle to extensive lesions such as alveolar bone necrosis and exfoliation of teeth. Pain, allodynia, and altered sensation are common features of acute herpes zoster

Herpes zoster infection and reactivation results in characteristic vesiculo-bullous-ulcerative lesions of the face and the oral cavity. Since it produces a radicular distribution of pain, it should be included in the differential diagnosis of radiculopathy. As per Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, patients who have risk behaviours of HIV infection should receive regular surveillance for undiagnosed HIV infection when they present with herpes zoster.

Symptoms:  painful skin rash along with blisters limited to one side of the body.

  • Pain, burning, numbness or tingling
  • Sensitivity to touch
  • A red rash that begins a few days after the pain
  • Fluid-filled blisters that break open and crust over
  • Itching

Virus that causes chickenpox and shingles is not the same virus responsible for cold sores or genital herpes which is a sexually transmitted infection.

Neuropathic pain - If pain of Herpes Zoster continues after healing of rash for more than three months in the affected skin areas, then it is termed as post herpetic neuralgia.
