Herpes zoster

Herpes zoster is an acute, localized infection with varicella-zoster virus, which causes a painful, blistering rash.

Herpes zoster, or shingles, is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. After an episode of chickenpox, the virus becomes dormant in the body. Herpes zoster occurs as a result of the virus re-emerging after many years.
