The shingles vaccination is still recommended after shingles has cleared up to prevent a recurrence of the disease.
Herpes zoster is caused by varicella-zoster virus infection, which occurs in clusters of blisters on one side of the body, is painful and can be prevented by vaccination. Prompt treatment mostly cures it, and some will leave behind neuralgia. The biggest risk factor for the development of the disease is age, and people over the age of 50 are especially susceptible to shingles.
Although a certain degree of immunity can be acquired after having shingles, there is still a chance of recurrence as age increases and immunity decreases. Therefore, it is currently recommended that even if you have had shingles, it is best to get vaccinated again.
It is also recommended to seek medical advice from a medical professional if necessary.
