What is the reason for chronic pain after shingles?I have postherpetic neuralgia--I had shingles for about 2 weeks in August 2013...and since then have been suffering unbelievable pain 24/7 with no let up...pain clinics are nt pain clinics, they ask questions and don't know what the hell they are doing....have you dealt with this post shingles chronic pain...I am 84 years old.... Hello dear,Welcome to healthcaremagic.I have read your query and understood your concern.Postherpetic neuralgia is really a bothersome condition usually found in old aged people.Various drugs are available for the pain relief and treatment of this condition like combination of methylcobalamin with gabapentin/ pregabalin, amitriptyline etc.Topical medications like lignocaine , capsacin also provide relief to some extent.You may discuss it with your doctor. I hope he/she will agree with my opinion.If you have further query, you may ask me.Stay healthy.
Qual è il motivo del dolore cronico dopo l'herpes zoster? Ho la nevralgia posterpetica-ho avuto l'herpes zoster per circa 2 settimane nell'agosto 2013 ... e da allora ho sofferto di dolore incredibile 24 ore su 24, 7 giorni su 7NT Pain Clinics, fanno domande e non sanno cosa diavolo stanno facendo .... hai affrontato questo post di dolore cronico a tegole ... ho 84 anni .... Ciao caro, benvenuto in sanitario./ Pregabalin, amitriptilina ecc. Farmaci topici come lignocaina, capsacina forniscono anche sollievo. Puoi discuterne con il medico.Spero che sia d'accordo con la mia opinione. Se hai ulteriori domande, potresti chiedermelo sano.
