About Shingles

Shingles, less commonly known as herpes zoster, or zona, is a viral illness distinguished by a painful, unpleasant skin rash accompanied with blisters in a certain region on one side of the body. Shingles generally appear in characteristic long straight regions or stripes. The starting infection of Varicella zoster virus (VZV) the acute disease, which has a short and fast onset but severe course, is chickenpox, which primarily occurs in children, adolescents and, less commonly, in young adults.

Its Relation to Chickenpox

Once the development of chickenpox has concluded, the virus is not eradicated out of the body and can go into a dormant or inactive stage, eventually causing the development of shingles — a viral illness with signs and symptoms that differ from what can be observed from the initial Varicella zoster infection. Shingles usually shows up many years after the first infection.
