It usually does not recur after it is cured, but it may reappear in a small percentage of patients. When herpes zoster recurs on the head, the patient will have more intense itching and pain symptoms, if the facial trigeminal nerve is involved, it may lead to redness and swelling of the eyes, conjunctival congestion; if the cornea is involved, it may cause ulcerative keratitis, and in severe cases, it may even lead to blindness.
