Home Remedy For Shingles Treatment


There are surprisingly diverse amounts of treatments that can be used for viruses, especially one in particular known as Shingles.

Shingles is the type of virus that is annoyingly unpredictable. Some people get it while others do not, and while it predominant after a certain age, most people can go their whole lives without ever seeing a hint of it. Yet, we all have it living inside of us. The first step to treating the virus correctly is to understand what can set it off. The first pre-requisite is to have had chicken-pox before. Most things manage to squeeze through an immune system if it is weak enough and the shingles virus is no different. In some cases that can kill someone with a weak enough system

The shingles virus can also ‘wake up’ if sufficient levels of stress agitate a person’s immune system. As mentioned before, the virus is unpredictable, and even if you meet all the requirements you could go through your entire life without one outbreak. The second step to treating the virus is catching it in time. 72 hours after you first begin to notice symptoms of shingles is pushing your luck so within that time frame some type of treatment should be instigated. For the most part, for a disease like shingles, the main source of relief comes from skin creams and pain killers. Neither of which is a cure for the pain, but which do happen to fall under the heading of ‘home remedy’

Wet rags can be used to soothe the inflamed and tender skin, and a binding with a substance known as aluminum acetate can protect the infected area without causing further irritation. Calamine lotion is a fail safe for almost any sort of skin irritation so it would be smart to go through the aisles at your local grocery store to find products similar. Then of course there are the most obvious measures that need to be taken during your do it yourself treatment sessions. Stay out of the sun since the heat and UV rays can cause unbearable pain against already brutalized skin. Also, keep yourself from scratching at the area since, like the chicken-pox, you will only end up making it worse. If you do not believe me then consider the unlucky individuals who do not have the rash on a small area, but rather all over their bodies.


Anti-itch cream would probably be more than appreciated at that point. Should the time come where the virus is making repeated appearances, then it may be time to throw in the towel and head for the hospital. The reason is that after the first outbreak, it isn’t unusual that the virus that was originally stored in the roots of your nerves ‘burned’ itself out. However, continual outbreaks are indications of something deeper that can only grow worse as the attacks continue. Some victims of the virus have described the sensation as having your flesh eaten from the inside out. Once the pain reaches that level, stubbornness should be put on the backburner. If you are forced to go to your local doctor, you may be provided with some of the medicines that have recently been created to help fight off shingles. They are by no means brand names, but neither are they over the counter drugs either. After a few more years to study their effectiveness, there is no reason why this new medication cannot ease the pain caused by shingles, and even, eventually cure it.
