Shingles
is caused by the same virus as Chicken Pox. The virus may lie dormant
in a nerve root in the spine for many years until reactivated by stress;
when this happens, the virus multiplies and attacks the nerve, causing
searing, knife-like pains along its course. A few days later the
skin above the nerve erupts in itchy blisters; these generally heal within
one week, but the nerve pains can last for many weeks.
Shingles
has been successfully treated and managed by "Homeopathic Centre".
Shingles requires detailed specific prescribing of the "right" homeopathic
remedy.
Trial
and error or shotgun prescribing does not work, and therefore we don't
recommend self-medication. In fact, self-medication will complicate the
overall symptom picture.
Below are only some of the remedies we may prescribe, please note how important
the individual symptom picture is. Only when all symptoms, aggravation or
amelioration are taken into consideration can a specific homeopathic remedy
be selected.
A further consideration is given to the potency of the remedy.
