Abstract Introduction: Shingles (herpes zoster) is caused by the reactivation of a latent varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection, generally decades after the primary infection. The definition of post-herpetic neuralgia varies in the defined time period of the persistence of pain after the resolution of the rash (4-24 weeks) and thus the actual incidence is not known. Aim of the Work: The aim of this essay is to improve knowledge about pathogenesis and management of Post-Herpetic Neuralgia. Therefore, it is important to emphasis on the fact that anticipating such disease would be associated with a better outcome. Conclusion: Clinical results are dependent on precise lead placement as well as the underlying pathology being treated. However, spinal cord stimulation (SCS) continues to present its own unique set of challenges that must be acknowledged and addressed if this therapy’s full potential is to be realized. |
