Understanding PHN: A Hidden Struggle
Most people are familiar with Shingles, often referred to as "the adult version of Chicken Pox." However, what's less known is that among the 800,000 Americans who will develop Shingles this year, 20% may experience Post Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN).
PHN can be a long-lasting condition causing severe pain and sensitivity. For some, even everyday activities become impossible. One individual found their skin so sensitive that buttoning a shirt, riding in a car, or sleeping normally was unbearable?"they resorted to sleeping upright for over six years.
Unfortunately, PHN is challenging to treat due to several complex reasons:
1. Nerve Damage: The Varicella-Zoster virus can severely damage nerves, leading to prolonged issues.
2. Chronic Infection: The virus may create a persistent infection in tissues and nerves, preventing healing despite treatment.
3. Varied Treatment Responses: What alleviates symptoms for one person might not work for another.
The chronic pain of PHN often leads to depression and sleep issues. Research shows that the chemicals that heighten pain can also trigger depression, often reversible with appropriate treatment. This differs from endogenous depression, which stems from chemical imbalances. Understanding these dynamics can help in managing the condition effectively, alongside medical treatments.
Years ago, I developed a topical analgesic that has significantly eased PHN pain for thousands of patients.
If you or someone you know is dealing with PHN, it's crucial to stay informed about effective treatments and proper nutrition. Though challenging, managing PHN is possible with the right approach, reducing its impact on daily life.
