Shingles has little to do with sex. Shingles is caused by the activation of the herpes zoster virus and is transmitted by the fluid inside the herpes. Shingles is a skin condition that occurs when the varicella-zoster virus, which is already present in the body, is activated due to a decrease in immunity. The main symptom is the appearance of clusters of blisters on the side of the body or face, accompanied by localized nerve pain. The first episode of herpes zoster is usually manifested as chickenpox, mostly in children. After chickenpox is cured, the herpes zoster virus becomes dormant and can be reactivated when the body’s immunity is lowered. Mostly seen in the elderly, or themselves have underlying diseases, such as AIDS, diabetes patients, malignant tumors can also appear in the late stage. Herpes zoster is transmitted through the fluid inside the herpes, and it is usually shared with patients in public bathrooms and swimming pools. Herpes zoster attacks are caused by a decline in immunity, usually should pay attention to maintain emotional stability, less late at night, more exercise. If symptoms occur, you should seek medical attention.
