Shingles is a very painful yet very common disease. The first symptom is usually a skin rash on the face, head, neck and chest, or back. This is followed by skin redness and swelling, and a burning or searing pain. The accompanying pain is known as “post-herpetic neuralgia”.
While the shingles rash usually heals in 3 to 4 weeks, pain associated with this illness can become a long-lasting condition.
At Cypress Spinal Intervention, we offer clinically-proven treatment options that can substantially reduce the pain associated with shingles without the use of pain medications.
