摘要
The diagnosis and therapy for herpes zoster(HZ)are frequently associated with consultation of a general practitioner and with hospital care.Although there are several serious complications of zoster such as ophthalmic,splanchnic,cerebral,and motor conditions,the most common and feared in immunocompetent adults is postherpetic neuralgia(PHN).Its definition is controversial.Recent data support the distinction between acute herpetic neuralgia(within 30 d of rash onset),subacute herpetic neuralgia(30 to 120 d after rash onset),and postherpetic neuralgia(defined as pain lasting at least 120 d from rash onset)[1-3].PHN is classified as a neuropathic pain that is associated with mechanical allodynia where normally innocuous tactile stimuli are perceived as painful[2].In actual studies it is reported that the incidence of HZ is 3.2 to 4.1 in 1 000 person-years[4,5].
