Tips on Lingering Shingles Pain

Lingering shingles pain is a common complication of shingles. The pain continues even
after the shingle rash has disappeared. To understand it better, let us talk about shingles.
So what is it? Shingles is a viral infection that causes a painful rash. It can occur anywhere
on the body. However, it often appears as a stripe of blisters that wraps around the left or
right side of the torso. Now. shingles is caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It is the same
virus that causes chickenpox. When you get healed from shingles or chickenpox, the virus
stays dormant until the immune system weakens. Then, they attack the dermatome nerves
in your back. Thus causing the pain.
