Shingles occurs in the pubic area and is usually caused by the same virus, but in a different location. Herpes zoster of the pubic area is treated in the same way as herpes zoster of the head, face or abdomen, and is therefore usually curable. Since urination and defecation may cause local contamination of the pubic area, herpes zoster requires more attention to local treatment, keeping the area clean and dry, avoiding contact with urination and defecation and walking friction. Combined treatment is usually required, with oral or intravenous acyclovir recommended, and local acyclovir ointment, as well as antibacterial drugs, such as the commonly used erythromycin eye ointment and erythromycin ointment, and also local disinfection with a low concentration of potassium permanganate soak. Pay attention to local hygiene every time you urinate or defecate. If contamination occurs, you need to disinfect the area several times, and if necessary, you can protect the blisters or wounds with gauze and oil sand.
