Advance in Nerve Block in Postherpetic Neuralgia(review)

带状疱疹后遗神经痛(postherpetic neuralgia,PHN)是带状疱疹最常见的并发症,以顽固性慢性疼痛为特征,好发于老年人及免疫力低下者,严重影响患者的生活质量。其发病机制目前不十分明确,临床治疗困难,各种治疗方法均为缓解患者的疼痛症状,其中神经妥乐平联合神经阻滞疗法是近年来临床治疗中的一种较新疗法,具有独特的疗效和优势,值得临床应用和推广。

Postherpetic neuralgia （PHN） is one of the most frequent complications of herpes zoster, with the feature of intrac table chronic pain. The higher incidence of PHN has been found in elder people and the people with low immunity. Because its pathogenesy is not clear, the clinical treatment appears to be very difficult, and all kinds of the treatments just relieve pain. Neuro- tropin combined with nerve block is one of the new therapies recently, which is deserved to be used in clinic and to be generalized.
