Treatment of shingles during pregnancy: Recently, more patients have consulted me about the treatment of shingles during pregnancy, but there is no clear clinical plan for the treatment of this type of shingles patients, so I would like to summarize it here. The probability of women suffering from shingles during pregnancy is greater than normal, which may be related to the endocrine regulation during pregnancy, the decline in immune function. In addition to suffering from the pain caused by this disease, compared with other groups of people, they have another obsession – the impact on the future baby. In fact, this virus is usually confined to a certain ganglion, a localized lesion. The effect on the fetus has not been authoritatively reported, and may be related to the length of the pregnancy, the site of the lesion, etc.. Regardless of the effect on the fetus, it is important to treat the disease aggressively. Doctors have too many concerns about the use of conventional antiviral drugs, which are not suitable for them due to their side effects. In fact, in addition to conventional antiviral drugs, we have many non-pharmacological treatments that can be used, which are safe and effective, without side effects, and will not have a direct impact on the future baby. Below I will introduce the safe and effective treatments for shingles during pregnancy. First, drug treatment: methylcobalamin oral can nourish the nerves and reduce post neuralgia after neuritis. Local rubbing Penciclovir cream can play a local antiviral effect, rubbing glycerine lotion can reduce local pain, the combination of the two drugs can shorten the time of pain, speed up the recovery of the disease. Second, physical therapy of traditional Chinese medicine combined with the use of external drug treatment: it can use plum blossom needle to puncture the local blisters, after fire can therapy, use boric acid solution to apply wet compresses locally, and then apply Pientzehuang ointment or Pientzehuang aqueous solution. This method can accelerate the subsiding of blisters and greatly reduce the pain. Helium-neon laser physiotherapy: An article published in Swiss Medical Weekly in 2012 confirms that the method of electric stimulation can effectively control the onset of virus, alleviate local pain and reduce the occurrence of sequelae at the same time. Helium-neon laser light physiotherapy can control blisters, promote their shrinkage and accelerate skin healing. These methods can have the same effect as antiviral drugs, while avoiding the side effects of antiviral drugs. But the key to treatment is early. Early treatment can effectively reduce the occurrence of postherpetic neuralgia. Pregnant shingles patients need to pay attention to the following points: 1. Not very serious shingles can be self-healing (some special parts need to be treated as soon as possible, such as the face, because it may affect the eyes or ears), the main reason why people talk about shingles is that the pain of the serious condition is really intolerable. 2. pregnant women with shingles, if you choose the right Chinese medicine treatment, than the Western medicine is better, mild side effects, less impact on the fetus. 3. Have confidence and keep your mood happy. It is very important to have a light diet, regular work and rest, and a calm mind.
