A wrap around the snake’s waist will not kill anyone. It is also known as herpes zoster, which heals well with active treatment and is usually not life-threatening. It is a viral infectious skin disease that occurs on the waist, chest, neck, head and face, mainly manifesting itself as a local burning sensation, pins and needles pain and a blistering rash. The rash is mostly distributed along the nerve line, arranged in a band, and occurs on one side of the body, usually not exceeding one circle of the midline wrap. Herpes zoster is treated with aggressive antiviral and nerve-nourishing therapy, and the patient’s painful symptoms can be gradually reduced and are not life-threatening. Patients with herpes zoster should visit the dermatology department of the hospital as soon as symptoms appear. Because of its long treatment process, patients need to be patient and insist on treatment to avoid the formation of postherpetic neuralgia, which increases the pain of patients.
